I can do that. Still trying to figure out what rim I want to run. I'm thinking the Motegi MR118.

Do we need to order new bolts to run these different wheels?

Gary, I ordered my package (Moda MD11/Xi2) last night. I referenced your name, but didn't mention Audiworld. Can you correct this? Thanks.

I tried to have nearly the exact setup as you but could get no commitment from VMR on when 708s would be available again. I even missed my chance as I took 5min too long to call back apparently! So I ended up with 710s instead.
There are three different Audi center caps that work well in the VMR wheels

periphery chrome ring .......4B0 601 170 A 7ZJ
solid dark gray..........4B0 601 170 7ZJ
solid light gray..........4B0 601 170

Shown below is; Audi OEM center cap, dark gray # 4B0 601 170 7Z.

Great price. Did you drop down to 225/45/18 to get that pricing?

The wheel in the picture, I posed above is 18" VMR 708, in Gunmetal finish. The Audi OEM center cap, dark gray # 4B0 601 170 7Z, works well with VMR Gunmetal finish. They are available form the dealer or Achtuning has them.http://shop.achtuning.com/audi-oem-grey-centercap.aspx

The original post was VMR 708 hyper silver, so the light gray would be better; # 4B0 601 170

Also the dark gray with the chrome ring might look ok on hyper silver;

One can also find this stuff on Ebay, if you wish to order the inexpensive China versions and wait for delivery, just search on Audi
4B0601170
