Well i am very happy this weekend as i received a set of Genuine RS6 rims that i brought for my dad's 2007 A4 Turbo Quattro.

They are practically brand new, not a mark in sight and not a hint of dirt on them front or back.

I wont tell you all how much i paid for the yet because i would like to post a poll to see what you all think i paid for them?

Here are some quick shot i took of them,

They look fantastic! Look virtually new. I'd reckon they'd go for $1000+ on eBay, but I bet you stole them :P

You've either put a poll up because you got them for cheap and wanna show it off, or because you got a weird price and secretly don't know if it was a good deal or not :nana:. I'm going for $500-$1000.

Original from Audi i'm going to guess they cost in the vicinity of ~$1800 a rim.

But you might have paid, $800 for the lot?

Well majority of you were spot on with the price been between $500 - $1000.

I picked them up for $650.

The reason for the post was because i wanted to see what you all thought i could pick these up for, so i could determin how much i can try and sell dad's genuine 17" wheels for now.

I'm interested to hear what's the maximum price you all would have paid for these wheels?

I'd have wanted someone to pay me to take them off their hands. Audi couldn't come up with a more boring wheel if they tried!

I'd have to say the same thing about the OEM R36 wheel, as with the 08-09 R32 rims.

I agree on that one, but I think these RS6 wheels are gorgeous....it's the five-spoker that gets me. :)

I think these are one on of best looking oem wheels audi has made, they are so simple and not cluttered. I wish they would bolt straight onto the bora.

nice rims....i agree about the oem r36 rims...they are a bit plain (and undersized)

Yep, me too, totally agree. My standard R36 rims are boring but not a fan of the RS6 rims either.

The Omanyts (R32/R36) are some of the nicest wheels on any new VW in my opinion.
Grass is always greener... ;)

Love the RS6 wheels. They look fast sitting still.

not bagging, but are you sure these are RS6 wheels?
They dont appear to have an aggressive enough slope, maybe it's just the pictures.

They look more like S-Line wheels. Maybe double check the part number.

Otherwise sexy wheel at a awesome price, either way.
Would love a set for myself.

They are 100% genuine audi RS6 wheels. All the stamps on the back correspond with audi's database and i did alot of research before buying these to make sure they were genuine.

I'm not sure what s line wheels your talking about.

Hey thats the look I was thinking of going for, but settled on the oem Sports 5 spokes

Yeah the only way to get them is to go copy's but that's not for me. I'm quite happy with my 17" Toccata's but i would love another set of bigger wheels just to throw on for nice weekends, cruises and shows.
