The RS6 has 19's. Your best bet is going to be eBay, loot etc. But beware they are not stolen, you'll need to check credentials and the story of how they came to be for sale.

Thumbs up

Doubt you'd get real RS6 wheels cheaper than that. Think they're something like £2500 for a set new from Audi so they aint gonna be cheap secondhand even if you can find some.

£735 for a set of 4 18" RS6 wheels is a bargain. That includes tyres!!!

they made some especially soft alloy wheels so that when you hit an obstruction that could damage the car, the wheel deformed instead. at the time there were reports of owners having wheels replaced on a very regular basis, due to this "design feature". AFAIK audi replaced all the deformed wheels under guarantee.

They are advertised on eBay as being RS6 'style' wheels. The important bit to note is style, they are probably not Audi originals, so best ask them straight to make sure.
