Default Audi should have stuck to the RS6 5-arm wheels they are now putting on A4 S-Lines

I jsut got a 2006 2.0T S-Line and love the 5-spoke wheels that were optional on the 2005.5 S4. I don't know why Audi switched wheels on the S4 after only a few months. I am sure most people loved the RS6 wheels for their simplicity and elegance.

Default Who cares? They're absolutely gorgeous.

I hadn't even posted in AW in years, but you brought me back from the dead... I've been over in the dark side for more than a year now.

Default " dash duster " is the answer for brake dust

Just buy one of those small $5 interior lightly oil impregnated " California car dusters " from any local auto parts place ( or WalMart or Target ,etc) and it will literally suck the brake dust right off the otherwise " clean " wheels. Throw it away after a few months and get another . The person who is bothered by wheel dust will still be bothered with the smaller amount on waxed wheels, IMO.

Default pft dude they're not THAT bad....

<center><img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0009KMHNO.01-AFUJGPZZEV0DU._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg"></center><p>I just use my regular body wash (One Grand) and this mitt, it takes about 3 minutes per wheel, and that includes stuffing the mitt inside the wheels to clean the inner surface, which is a must to look good.

I skip brushes and chemical, think they're too harsh.

A coat of wax helps keep dust off too.<ul><li><a href="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0009KMHNO.01-AFUJGPZZEV0DU._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg">in case amazon won't hotlink...</a></li></ul>

Default fwiw, these wheels are simply BEAUTIFUL in person!

I saw them at my dealer today. I'm thinking they would look great on my TT or better yet, I would look great in an S4! This car is one serious machine.
