Sooooooooo I know this isn't RS6 related per se, but I don't know where else to turn. I picked up a set of wheels for my wife's A6, they were previously on a 2005 S4, and my local indy shop managed to mangle one with the tire dismounting machine. Pics attached, what you see is all the info I have on them. Any help figuring out what they are and how to get a replacement would be appreciated greatly!

Thanks

Looks like that shop bought that wheel from you...make them pay for a new one.

Looks like something that could be repaired fairly easily. I've had it done before and the quality was as good as new, for around $100 per wheel. WELL worth it. Plus if the shop owns up to their mistake you could get all four refinished any color you want for the price of one new wheel.

Replying all above -

If I could find who made them, and find a suitable replacement, the shop is buying.

Can't repair the busted rim, is forged flow spun aluminum

Bigglez - no TDM stamping around the lip tells me this may be TDR, their lower quantity very high priced and quite rare wheels. I've put in an inquiry but no answer as of yet. If it is TDR, I'm going to be s#! + out of luck trying to find a single replacement, and they only do production runs of 100+ pieces...

The color was what drew the wife in on these wheels, anthracite titanium looks stunning!

Sorry to hear this. I've had similar issues way too many times at wheel shopes who claim to be very careful.

those are MKIV R32 wheels no? But at that the time vw had them on the r32's i though audi sold one for like winter wheel tire sets in the shop as an audi wheel as in i think your dealership should know.

nevermind, i see the lip is not quite right to be those true mkiv r32 wheels, aristos i believe is what they were called, but my second comment about the dealer winter/wheel package wheel comment still holds.

Still nothing. Local shop owner is still combing salvage yards and whatnot, and I've come to the end of my google-fu. Last chance anyone before I go back to the shop and get them to replace all 4 with something Audi OE?
