Sorry I can't help on the weight of the wheels, but isn't it amazing to think that in the short space of time since the last Mk1 RS6 rolled off the production line to the start of the new one, the wheel size has grown a full 2" from 18" to now 20". And this is all made possible with the improvements being made in suspension design.

is SSR forged?
I was searching forged wheels and couldn't find a nice looking one for RS6.
Btw, I really like org. wheels, but is any where we can find same style but it's forged?
also like MTM's, but it's not light weight though ><~~

Actually, "semi-solid" forged, so even lighter. And sadly due to company (not quality) issues, they are BK, so wheels are extremely hard to find now for the RS 6 from them...

maybe this sounds too crazy :bigeyes: , but I was even thinking about to ask a manufacturer in Taiwan (ps. they are very famous for OEM, forged..etc wheels)
I think original style is best looking on RS6 after I have done research on google, Tirerack AND none of them I like.
to meet my criteria:
1. simple & elegant style
2. Light Weight: forged or better
3. maybe more colors to choose
How many one here would like a light weight wheels?
I really like light wheels becuz RS6 is kinnda heavy and I want to strip down little bit :rotflmao:

even this is a re-post, I still can't stop to show off my new wheels. See this : http://www.eisenhaus.com/EurocrossS_E.php
19" x 9J, ET30, 9.18kgs. The finish of this wheel is second to none.:bow: There are many color options, too. I have the Hyper Black wheels on my beast.

Those wheels look pretty nice, but at $1100+ each (!!!!!!!!!) they OUGHT to! :bigeyes:
I will say that I also think the OEM 5-spoke RS 6 wheel is the best-looking on the C5-bodied cars (as you can probably tell from my avatar), and I've often wondered why nobody offered a forged version. I'd be interested, but not at $1000/wheel.

Yes, they are not cheap, but they meet the requirements (also mine) you mentioned :
1. simple & elegant style
2. Light Weight: forged or better
3. maybe more colors to choose
the pic just can't justify how good looking these wheels on a RS6, I have two set of these wheels, one is on my R32, but the one with deep lips on my RS6 is much better looking.
I have used several aftermarket wheels, BBS, MTM, COX, OZ, etc, I still liked BBS's the most before using these NEEZ wheels. Neez is a small company with small capacity, every piece of wheel is hand made.
The price tag of NEEZ is not crazy compare with all other wheels I have used. (also compare my friends) IMHO. NEEZ wheel is very handsome, light and strong.

In the U.S. www.tirerack.com (http://www.tirerack.com) has BBS RGR's (forged) for $808 and BBS RS-GT(on my car) & BBS LM's for $1041. A lot to pay but a very reputable manufacturer when it comes to Forged high quality wheels and they are all available in silver or diamond black. About 9 lbs each lighter than stock. MGH
