    They look great. The looks don't scream aftermarket, and the VW emblem in the middle completes the look. Are these RS4 look-alikes?
    Can you give links and approx price for rims/tyres for those of us sitting on the fence?

    ET is 42 I think Johan. Done about 500k's on the tyres so far in rainy and dry conditions and gotta say they perform pretty well, excellent value IMO. Just slightly noisier than stock but not a lot, but that may diminish with some wear i suspect.

    Simon are the tyres rated for the Tig (towing capacity etc) or car tyres?

    That's a great price too! My tyres were more than that on their own!

    clip, looked at some wheels and tyres at Gold Coast, they wouldn't even sell me the Kumhos, said to go with Goodyear or Continental...at a cost obviously.

    Still very interested in the Kumhos and wheels from Tempe or St George in Victoria...

    cheers

    PS taking the car in tomorrow to check whether APR has my engine code...
