I will only do a change if it involves NO mods ie no spacers or tweaks to the fenders etc... Let me know if anyone is willing to talk live on this. Thanks!!
    I 'installed' them in my garage with a jack and a 17mm socket wrench. Easy to find a set with tires already mounted as the Rs4 uses the same size as the C5 RS6. www.enimotorsports.com up in Brookfield is also a place I say you can trust to mount and balance. What's so funny about the rims being from an RS4? They rock and fit perfectly with no spacers. They seem to be pretty stout too, as far as 19" rims go, with a thin sidewall a lot of rims will take a pothole in the form of a bend. Yes, most any modern Audi rim will bolt-on...its the offset you have to be mindful of. You have to find the right fit from between a 35-25mm offset (for no spacers).

    RS4 wheels - 19x9 ET29 - 255/35/19

    i have just installed these rims, i've always liked the way they look and i think they look good on the RS6 as well, i've seen it on other C5 RS6 and they helped me make this decision...





    Ex.: 2004 Audi RS6 C5 ABT, Milltek non-resonated, 19" RS4 B7 rims, RNS-E - SOLD
    2004 AUdi RS6 C5, SE exhaust, RNS-E, 19' original rims - SOLD

    these have just been refurbished by the previous owner and when we did the balancing they seemed alright, we'll see tomorrow how they feel on a longer trip, my 18" had a light rumble around 65-70mph as one is slightly bent, it's how it came with the car, i hope that with new rims i will also get rid of the that rumble...

    I think the RS4 wheels make it look a bit younger and sportier, the 18 ones are too conservative, if i had found the 5 spoke RS6 ones i would've bought it, but can't find it here and buying it over the internet it's a no for me as i can't be sure that they're ok...plus the RS4 ones are plug&play, no need for spacers or center rings which i don't like....

    Yeah..I love the look of your RS4 wheels too...I would have powdercoated mine black anyway, so I got lucky with my black Volk VR G2's, which incidently were off a RS4, so same size too...

    Elevens, I did a little research and everywhere I read said they are very good quality for cast wheels. Weight is ~25lbs.

    Lookin good Chris

    Got some 20 inch 'peelers' for the S6. Did a test fit on the A6 today. Too heavy for my RS6, but should be fine on the wagon.

    Not super light but they are cheap. It seems that there are a lot of BBS and OZ wheels that are just as heavy or heavier for 2-4 times the money. What is the weight of an equivalent VMR wheel? I'm shopping now so I'm following this. Anyone got some Sportecs for sale?
