Default So if you had a choice between these....

and 4 OEM 2002 17" sport package wheels w/ Dunlop SP 9090's with about 900 miles on them for $900, which would you do?

Default tough call...

First of all, I prefer aftermarket wheels compared to OEM, makes the car unique to you...so I am a little biased here.

The Ronals are great wheels, + very very strong, and the S-03s are better tires than those Dunlops, although the Dunlops are also good, and both are max performance "summer" tires.

If you have the cash to spend, and the $600 is not a big deal, I would go with the Ronals and the S-03s. I assume the $900 is delivered, so you would be saving $600. That is nothing to sneeze at though, 67%!!!

Don't know if the Ronals + S-03s are $600 better than the Audi set....plus, when you are basically saving a whole set of tires going with the cheaper version.

My thinking is by saving the $600 I can pay for my suspension upgrades much easier

Gary will get you any tire you want, but he recommends Pirelli

there you go then, probably the wiser decision, + for $900, that package is a very good deal.
