Default MTM forged rims.

I've been having problems uploading my pics into the pic poster, but seems ok with pics from the net. Anyone else having the same problem?

So this is from the MTM website, and I have the forged rims painted silver, as with the cast rims.

They fit beautifully, (ET 35) and are flush to the body work to the nth degree.

My wife and kids think they look too aggressive though, although what I had on before has been regarded as one of the most classic around in the clean "Euro" look. In comparison, the MTMs suffer on the looks department.

Default Really like those rims

Anxious to see some pics of them on your car. Seems like they would suit the S5 perfectly.

Default 2 versions currently available, the cast at 29 lbs and the forged at 19 lbs.

If you look at the photo, you'll see a tiny "forged" next to "MTM".

Default The rims will be made to fit.

Currently available for the R8, S/A3, A6 (mine was one of the first), RS4 soon (diff ET from the A4).

My car looks exactly like the A6 3.0 TDi on the MTM site (no letters on the side of course).
