Best place to buy set of 17" A4 5-spoke SP wheels with 235/45R17 A/S tires?
I can go with either OEM or replica wheels. So far I 've seen the Wheel Exchange and anotehr outfit (OE Wheel Distributors) offering replicas of the 2002+ Audi 5-spoke 17" sport package wheels in 5x112 with 35 mm offsets. If I go with OEM take-offs, I will most likely add 10 mm spacers.
I would like to get a set with 35 mm offset mounted on all-season (rather than summer high-performance) 235/45R17 tires. I am assuming that the 35 mm offset would work on a Passat. If possible, I would like to purchase the set of wheels with tires already mounted and balanced ready to go. Am I looking at around $1000-1100?

I thnk you are mistaken to add 10mm spacers to 35mm offset.

that will make your offset 25 which I think is too much.
I hope Gary forgives me for using his website images.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/offset.htm">Offset</a></li></ul>
