Gunmetal RS4's 18x8
« on: February 18, 2010, 08:43:16 pm »
...On my Steel Grey 3door, can't decide. Should I? :indifferent:



I'm torn between those, some LM reps in a similar colour, Charlestons or Audi S-Line splits  :party:
All of these will be in 18" on stock springs for now.

Opinions? I can't decide if RS4's are too aggressive or suit the Mk5 nicely?

Thumbs up from me, I did consider getting some done in a matt textured finish as I think they would look good. :happy2:

prefer the RS6 to the RS4's to be honest, and the pic looks like 19's but you plan to run 18's so may not look as good.
requires a good drop for full effect

@rubbertoe : that looks proper amazing , well done  :congrats: . they dont look 'too big' to me ?

^^^ I second that; it looks amazing on those RS6 wheels.  :party:

At OP - go for it. Those look fine.
