Default I think they were discontinued in the OEM RS4 fitment, unfortunately.

last time I checked, Tire Rack didn't have them listed in our size anymore. Some guy here from the UK also reported not being able to find them anywhere. Bummer...I would have liked to try them.

Default you probably won't be able to find the Corsas, IIRC they are discontinued in our fitment.

and the Cups aren't correctly load rated for the RS4, though several people still use them with apparently no issues.

the choices are very limited in OEM size. You might consider dropping to an 18" wheel for more selection.

PS Cups are going to be awesome for track work... but not practical for street use esp when it rains

Default Love the cups, just need a good warm up before you want to play hard!

They are not too bad in the wet, just as long as it's not heavy downpour! Yes, they do pick up gravel especially when warm, but they clean of after about 10 mph. No, they don't throw rocks at speed like S4iowa claims... some ones always gotta' rain on the parade! BTW, Porsche specs p/s cups for street use on the GT3.

My $.02
