Question on RS6 rims
When I purchased my car, all 4 of my rims in various places had some rash to them. Add to the fact that I just gave it my first one in a real bonehead move and I've decided to use these as my winter rims when I get my Dunlop Winter Sport M3's mounted to them soon. (Winter tires/rims can take a real beating here in Chicago.)
So, I am going to get another set of rims for my summer tires and that way those will be fresh rims. I know I can purchase OEM rims from Audi but that seems like such a rip off so I've decided to shop around to see what options are out there.
I did a search but I didn't find a real clear cut answer as to what the the offset, bolt pattern and rim depth are for the OEM 9 spoke RS6 wheel. Can someone please enlighten me here? Thanks!

Thank you!!! At least I have something to work off of now. Question though, in some that I am
looking at, they appear to be replicas and are listed as 18 X 8.5 as opposed to 8. Will it make that big of difference?

I've seen these on a RS6 the same color as you have and it looked absolutely awesome!

Davey...the ones I have are 18 X 8.5....5 x 112
Make sure you call my guy also to coompare pricing... :-)
BTW....I mounted those tires on the car today....nice but now with the 17's back on the car looks a bit weird......hope we have a short winter ;-)
