Got my winter wheels on and interested if anyone has some 17s in decent condition with good tyres they fancy swapping? Avus were refurbished on the front face and have part worn Michelin and nearly new Uniroyal Rainsport 2s on them and come with centres and bolts.
Post up if you have something...

Are you looking to swap for summer-tyred wheels? I'm not 100% certain yet but I might want to have two sets of 16" Avuses (one for winter, one for summer) as I prefer the look of my Avant on Avuses and 15mm spacers than with my 17" BBS RXs. So I could be interested in a swap if you are too.
17" BBS RX
Powder coated dark grey (looks black to me)
Plasti-dip coated a lighter grey as a temporary measure (I wasn't pleased with my choice of powder coat colour)
Dunlop SportMaxx RT, 225/45 R17, still plenty of tread after maybe 2,000-3,000 miles usage
Spigot rings to fit S2 hubs
Sorry for getting back to you late, I was busy on Thursday and Friday...
First pic is from when I got the wheels on the car and decided I'd had them powder coated too dark a shade of grey.
The second is what they looked like on the car with a covering of 'Plasti-dip'. This was only ever intended as a temporary measure until I could afford/be bothered to powder coat them again. It peels off and has started to come off due to weather anyway, but of course the wheels themselves are not damaged from this coating.
I think they are ET35 but I will check when I return home (I'm at my parents' house over Christmas), they have 225 section tyres on without any stretch and I had spigot rings made as they came from a MkV Golf not an Audi.
Yeah still plenty of meat on the tyres, I'll measure with tread depth gauge tonight. All 4 are Sport Maxx as when I bought the wheels they had 4 tyres by a brand I'd never heard of
