    No rubbing at all, the ur has a much smaller diameter tyre.
    225 35 18 is what I had it on.

    You could fit 245 35 18s like mine on an avant. or 225 40s but keep away from the curbs!

    I might let them go..

      Dest, IMHO,

      1. BBS LMs - Merseyspeed for replicas ?

      2. S8 - Suit the age of the car.

      3. B7s - Too modern, B4 is not an B7.

      Kind regards.

        The photoshop is of genuine B7s right? I don't think reps would look as good. S8s all the way for me, dark ones would look cool

            S8's for me too, suttle and discrete , B7's look to aggressive!

                      they cost far too much though matt and who wants a fake BBs.

                      i rememebr a show where think it was sema about 8 years ago where the found about 20 copies of bbs wheels. some would break after only a few miles.

                      i went with bbs Rc's in 18" as i like them and had them before and the deal was great on them.

                      i think the B7 over the S8 for me but once again not copies.

                        Id love original B7's but they cost silly money and would be way too wide!
                        At the moment im leaning towards the B7 reps as its a little different from the norm and ive already had S8's

                          Dest I meant B7 RS4 reps (i.e. the ones you posted).

                          If you fancy something different I have these for sale at the moment: http://www.s2forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=36144

                          They look fantastic but would need spacers as they are 8x18 ET45.

                                No, the buyer couldn't collect them and I'm in no position to prepare them to be shipped at the moment, my leg is in a cast and it's just too much hassle.

                                They went for 440 I think, it would be unfair to ask for any more than that.
