    CBeau do you have any pictures (or can anyone find a generic photo of the RS6 running RS4 OEM wheels)? I'm looking at a set of RS4 wheels for my winter setup. TIA

    Thanks Bigglezworth Got the set of RS4 wheels & they came to me in excellent shape with 255 35 19 Dunlop SP winter sport 3D tires. The wheels look and fit great, the tires are kind of loud guess will have to get used to it seems to be the trade off for having traction in the snow.

    To offer a data point for others, I will say the OEM RS4 wheels are an improvement in that they fit right up sans the hub centric bore adapter rings and spacers required to run the later generation "peelers", so that is a plus when going over bumps etc feels slightly more solid.

    Still need to acquire the correct center caps, anyone know where to find those?

    Sorry I just now saw your request... but yes mine look pretty just like that. Mine came with center caps. They do fit great. I deal with wheels a lot and those are very high quality and strong in my semi-qualified opinion.

    My car is same color as yours too. I want some kind of nice splitter for front. I don't drive it much but still it needs a little tasteful something to finish the front off. Was following a group buy thread on here while ago but nothing ever came of it. These cars are getting old!! Young kids look at it as a total classic.... which it is.

    I have just read this lengthy but very informative article & appreciate all I've learnt so I thought I would add my details & setup in case it gives someone a perspective they're looking for. This is my machine, and it is on its original wheels 19 x 9 ET35 which I believe is the European set up even though I'm way down in the antipodes, Christchurch, New Zealand which just below & to the right of Australia in case your wondering,... think All Blacks, Rugby, & the Haka etc. I have had the failed DRC replaced with Bilstein adjustables so that allows me to set the ride height how i like it, which is quite low compared to some others I see here. The only issue I've got is slight rub on inside of front guards when turning full lock, but no issues any other time even when driving to the limit on tight winding hills. I to was wanting to change my wheels & have been wanting a very nice set of RC10 Rohanna's from the USA as I'm very keen on a very deep dish look with wheels set to the outer edge of the guards. I was almost going to risk 20" but this article has convinced me to stick with 19 x 9.5 with a ET31. I hadn't realised the ride & drivability compromise, this car needs every bit of help it can get to go around corners at pace. Not sure when budget will allow this but once complete I'll post some pic's.

    Nate Dog nice, love those euro 19'S on your RS6!

    I got my center caps for the RS4 wheels w/ winter tire set up I'm running. Bring on the snow!!!
