Does anyone have pictures of an RS6 on anthracite or other dark-colored wheels? Maybe that BBS RS-GT wheel?

Well, the factory wheels are NOT 19's in the USA....they are18's. The 19's were a five spoke only offered in Europe.

and you are entitled to your opinion....I do like the 18" nine spoke as well...but wanted to try some 19's.

I do love the BBS... If I had a RS6, they`d be my choice, too :) but may be in dark chrome....

rks838,

I've been admiring the RS-GT wheel, too. Are you thinking of buying? Think we might be able to generate some interest in a group buy?

Bauer, these are CH? did you have them painted? I'm using bbs CH 18" for winter wheels.

and here is 19" + stock wheel:

I think the RS6 looks great with these gray-colored wheels. I like the BBS for its branched design and light weight. The iForgedFlux are nice because they are so open - great for seeing the massive rotors, and even better in movement. These are lightweight too, correct? It's not a surprise that both cars are Daytona Gray, as that color matches the wheels almost perfectly.

Just to enter my favorite RS6 wheel, which would look awesome painted gray, here a B&B 20"

To be honest, they may a little big for the car - any opinions?

CornersWell: Quite frankly, I'd have a very hard time getting approval from the family (you know who) for the buy, especially the BBS RS-GT. While I think the wheel is one of the best looking wheels out there, 4 would cost almost $4000. The family is not incredibly happy about the original buy itself :/, even though I got it in August '04 at a discounted price of $72,000.

Yes they are painted...I actually got them from Stewart....when he got rid of his car. The are painted with a VAG color....I think from VW.

At least according to Tirerack! Saved $5K (or more)! Too bad, as I liked the look.

I noticed that on tirerack.com too, but I wasn't sure it was a final answer for whether they fit.

B,
those 19" CH's with the grey finish look hot.

I also love the 19" RS6 5 spokers with the grey finish.
I almost got those for my S....
