Been offered some oettingers

Have been told by the guy one has slight curb and two have slight imperfections in the laquer.

Been told 500 for all 4 with treads.

17x8"

5x100 PCD

Bridgestone 215/40/17 tyres all with good tread

metal valves

P.s the guy lives in essex too!

Or shall i stick with RS6s???

get these ones!

Go with these ones! 8" is HUGE though. Be careful with ride height and rubbing. :) But they look WELL sexy! :D

8's will need 215 section tyres, Alex used to run that size on his PD100 Fabia on coil overs no problems.

I saw them over on E38 too mate. They are nice wheels, however they are quite heavily curbed. Unless you plan on getting them refurbed, I wouldn't really bother, as they just won't look as nice. I've got 19" Oettinger split rims on my A3, and they look very very nice.

I wouldn't bother I had these on the Octy, bought them new, cleaned every week and never kerbed yet were showing signs of corrosion on the diamond cut section in less than a year. If they're kerbed they're not gonna look very good and will be expensive to refurb due to the centre's being painted and the edges being diamond cut. Great looking wheels when perfect though. Here's a pic of when they were new.

Wheels with spokes that fold inwards will also give the visual impression that the wheel size is smaller than actual, not what you really want for a furby imo.
