ive just fitted some 18" audi rs6 reps on, and i think they look mint, (i'll post some pics up soon) and as long as you dont drive them into the kurb then i think the strength wont be an issue. but now i have fitted the car could definatly do with being lowered so maybe you want to look into that as well. but i think the new style rs4 reps will look great and as long as you avoid the kurb will be a good buy.

I had the same problem as ethos.I spent weeks trawling the net looking for wheels.I heard all sorts of bad stories with copies and cheap wheels.In the end i brough some 17" Abt tuning wheels which are made by bbs.They are very light and look well made.I then waited for another month to buy some decent tyres for them, Goodyear f1 gsd3.Had them on for a few weeks.I did give the insides a good 2 coats of rim wax.Its these rims in 17"

Ethos here some more pics of my motor again. I am still liking these.

Well, each to their own. I won't personally be buying any replica rims, if I wanted RS4 rims then I source a set of OEM ones, luckily I like the rims that the Octavia comes with... I'd just like them to be black!

I like the OEM vRS alloys too, but to me they are just too small.

:iagree:

Well I have just ordered these replicas in 18" Wheelbase - official ACE, DeCorsa and Konig distributor in the UK will post pics next week when I fit them. Will recoup some of the money by putting my old ones on ebay

They have arrived , here are some pics :P

Looks great

What splitter is that on your front bumper. I am liking that alot

Looks like a Leon Cupra R splitter, you mean to say your car doesn't have one on!?

standard shocks and springs and as Dan said Leon Cupra R splitter

No.... But it will have soon £20 seems to be the going rate on ebay. unless anyone knows better?

IIRC they are only £16 from a SEAT dealer

That sits really nice, Does the ride feel much harder ?

It is firmer but not harsh in any way. Feels alot tighter and flatter under cornering although I havent pushed it yet as I want the tyres to scrub a little, roads are a little greasy at the moment and I have no experience with these tyres :eek:

They look terrible Im afraid. The standard wheels work well on the vRS IMO.

What tyres are they?

Accroding to the pictures the tyres are Enduro 916.

I'm not a fan of those wheels, it makes the car look a bit to bling for me but if you like them thats all that matters

They have arrived , here are some pics :P

These look really smart:thumbup: Going to order myself some tommorrow i think then sell my spiders. You still liking the wheels?

Im loving my wheels and the wheel company sent me some skoda inserts which make them look much better I think

I actually prefer them blank.

Sorry.

Sorry.

That ok bud different people like different things, thats why there are so many great and individual cars on sites like these

They still look ace though.

I love the new RS4 replica's but then i would and 18" all way.

Got my wheels from Alloywheels.com (£325 inc delivery) and my Toyo TR-1s from Camskill (£300 inc deliery) worked out a bit cheaper than getting the whole package from alloywheels.com
