Default Is there an A4-compatible wheel that looks like this (pic)?

<center><img src="http://131.107.68.28/a4org/ace101.jpg"></center><p>This is a picture of the Ace Millenia wheel. I like the design, but there are several problems:

1) It doesn't come in a4 fitment
2) It only comes in 7" width for 17" size.
3) I don't know anything about the quality and reputation of Ace Alloy wheels.

Can you recommend anothe wheel in similar style that fits an A4? I think Brabus Monoblock IV is very close in style, but that wheel is quite expensive ($400 plus per 17" wheel). I am looking for something in the neighborhood of $250-300 per wheel. Thanks for your help.

I think that is (one of) the most gorgeous wheel(s) I have ever seen

I suppose the TSW Trophy & the Borbet Type T resemble it somewhat in that price range

Default Here's the Borbet Type-T

But I think the spokes curve a bit more than the Ace.<ul><li><a href="http://131.107.68.28/a4.org/registry/details.asp?car=161">My Car</a></li></ul>

Default You can get Monoblock IV's for $425 / wheel in 18x8.5 - shop around! =)

Default Ronal R-7, "BULLDOG," -- similar ??--but better quality!!!

You might want to look at the NEW Ronal R-7, nicknamed the "Bulldog". It can be seen at the Ronal website, www.ronalusa.com, Index of cars section, A4, on my car. For an upclose look, click on the Smartire logo on the front page of the website, www.ronalusa.com.
It will be included in our wheel styles section, shortly now that it is available in 17x8" size. It will have full range fitments in 15-18" sizes as they become available.--And the Ronal quality is exceptional in its alloy wheels.

I don't see any similarities other than they're both 5 spoke
