    Ooooh, sold. I've been waiting for someone to come out with a Sportech looking wheel. You better jump on this, I don't think we can handle any more of "Dave pondering his new wheels"

    Finally some RS6 fitment backspace on these as well.

    Pat,

    These are even better looking.

    I wonder if either of these will be available in a 9" width somewhere down the line. I personally prefer the 701 to the new 718/old 710. I just like the spoke look.

    Yes,

    9.5s are in the pipeline. 33mm backspace. It will be a close fit on the backside. Very close

    No $hit

    But from the looks of things. Jacob knows how to service his customers. I dont think we will have a problem.

    VMR would be the way I would go if I decided to get new wheels. Luckily for me my buddy has an account.

    I still find myself the 2 factory version better than anything else out there. But, the second one (lace version) is the better of the 2. First one looks too delicate for the visual mass of the car.

    The straight spoke?

    Which color do you think on an Avus car?

    I am leaning to the mesh style in a gunmetal or hyperblack. Waiting on additional pics of just the rims in gunmetal and hyperblack(more of a black chrome type of color) to go against my Avus.

    I like the straights in silver on Avus. For the mesh i would go silver or gun metal on Avus. I think the black is too far on the RS6 on any color as you really loose the design of the wheel and the car just looks like its floating on black holes to me, making it look heavy.

    I agree going too dark is no good on the RS6. That is why I get all fussy with wheel color. Gunmetal may be too dark. I have emails into Jacob for better pics of the gunmetal and the hyperblack.

    hypersilvers are not out just yet.

    Those look great. Nice find Dave. You said they are working on a 9.5, but are they also working on a 9.0? That is probably my next mod. Hyper Silver would be good for me.

    One other question, can the oem audi center caps fit? Not ours of course, but maybe from the B6 A4 5-spoke?
