They look like VMR710...which are a copy of HREM40...which are a copy of a BBS race wheel.

Still, these TSW wheels

a) weigh only 20.5 lbs each in 18x8.5 ET32 (impressive)
b) sell for around 250 per wheel
c) look awesome



nice flush fitment on this B6 S4

 

I just ordered mine about 30 minutes ago. I've been dieing to get them for about 6 months now. I'll try to remember to post up some pics when I get them on my A3.

I ended up going with 17x8s since I just couldn't afford to get new tires AND new wheels at the same time. And 17s are better in some ways than 18s, especially with Montreal roads to contend with...

 

Just had my TSW Nurburgrings installed, along with a Koni FSD set and Eibach Pro-kit springs! And new front and rear discs and pads...

 

Beautiful wheels gents! Would it be completely insane for me to get these for my winter rims? I rather like my stock 18's and need to get some cool downsized rims for winters...

 

good stuff! what'd they weigh in at?

 

Well, the UPS tracking website claimed that the complete shipment was 2 boxes, at 35 lbs each, which implies 17.5 lbs per wheel! I have a hard time beleiveing that, and my installer said there was no way they were that light when he picked one of them up, but that's what the shipping info said...

Maybe I'll try to remember to weigh one when I put my winter tires on in December!

 

is your installer a calibrated digital scale? lol. I have a hard time taking someone's opinion on a measurement based on him picking one up

the 18x8.5 ET32 (aggressive offset with a ton of extra material vs. ET45 for example) weigh in around 20 lbs. That's impressively light. 17x8 weighing 2.5 lbs less is very possible, and I'd submit, probable.

 

I just grabbed a set of these for winters on my 2012 S4. Went with the matte bronze as I think it should look pretty slick on the monsoon grey. went with 18x8+45

Quick question for anyone who has them. I notice the centrebore is 72 (generic) so I will need hub rings which are supposed to be included. Did you require any other hardware to make these work? stock lugs work?

 

Yeah, mine didn't actually include the hub rings, they forgot them. Did include lugs and valve stems though. I got them from Discount Tire Direct.

 

I ordered mine from Victoria Tire - I hope they remember the hub rings. It is interesting they came with lugs, all the wheels i've ever bought never came with lugs.

But thats all you need anyway for these, rings and lugs?
