not too shabby. Haven't seen these around though... What's the size? Also, the problem with this is, you're gonna have to clean your car a lot, especially the fronts!

They're 20s (8.5" wide). I am pretty sure this company has gone under though, so that would make finding a replacement next to impossible. I think this wheelset was over $5k new, but they're now available for half that. It's tempting...

Looks good, but if the company has gone under, I'd probably skip my friend.

Ya, I'm on board with nene, unless you don't mind buying new ones when these invariably get damaged...

Agreed. Not worth the risk. And there's usually a dark cloud above my head. Me = bad luck ;-)

The owner of the company is Der Kimbo over at Audiworld, hes thinking of how to bring the company back now.

8.5? way too narrow. those are for a light narrow car like the a4... you need 9.5's on the front and 10.5's on the back :) i have 9.5's on the back of mine and 8.5 on the front and i'm trying to get them widened, the front just seems like its not very planted with those tiny tires...

We have not gone under and there are plenty of spares etc. That said however, for an RS6, you need wider than those 8.5's. We designed and engineered them for Gallardo/R8 front fitment. Thye just happen to fit B6/B7 Audi's nicely by coincidence :-).

lol, while I'm all for going wider (and really, should have), 8.5 are just fine ;P But, glad to hear that you guys are still around. You're local to LA? SoCal's kind of a big area....
