Default Help me find wheels like this for my RS6!

I feel like I have looked at every dang 18 inch wheel that will fit on an 09 xB, and I just haven't found anything perfect till I found this, but it is way too dang expensive. I was wondering if anyone knew of anything similar for cheaper.

This is an Axis Halo ($310 a rim)


Please help me get rid of these crap hubcaps on my rs6! Any other wheel suggestions I am open to as well. Also what offset should I get? This is my first time buying rims.

Well i don't have 1700 bucks for new wheels and tires, infact I don't think many people do. I am not asking for 100 dollar wheels, just something thats not 300 plus each... thanks anyways though.

I just got a set of 18"Enkei Em5's (Platinum Bronze) rims & tires were just under $1700.

<I could only find a pic of the black ones.>

Thanks for all the advise so far guys, I am really after that agressive angular look, I don't like the rounded spokes that the klamp has, but the red matches perfect.. haha I never realized how hard it could be to pick wheels :D

What do you guys think of the Enkie Klamp

It's starting to grow on me. Anyone know of any pics of any car with those on it? I can't find any.

You know I think I made a decision. I think everyone with a RS6 is going to be looking to put on the red and black rims, I am thinking these, or another variant of this color, would look pretty slick in the hyperblack. What do you guys think

Enkei Evo-5's 18 inch


I am not sure about the offset though, what do you guys think? I want the wheels to be flush with the fender.
