    never seen those on an R8 before. They look like older RS4 rims

    What I think too. The R8 wheels are double 5 spokes aren't they?
    Past: Mk3 Golf 2L 8V, Audi 8L A3T.
    Present: Mk3 Golf variant.

    Sorry, I just relayed what was in the ad - I didn't think R8 wheels either.

    The seller says he's selling them for someone else.
    I'm guessing (based on the error of calling these R8 wheels - when they are some years old) he will likely not be able to help with any questions, at least not directly.

    He's not answered my questions yet. Has anyone got a reply with details like offset? This will be a deal killer for many as they are probably 8.5" with 235-245 rubber).
    Bizi's Jetta TDI: Blue Graphite w. factory leather & tint, plus + Enkei Racing NT03+M + Yokohama S Drive 18s, Koni FSD, Neuspeed coils, GTI RSB + brakes, InPro mirrors, VW navi, Modshack. Come for a drive through the twisties on Saturdaze.
