  • Hers: A4 Avant content

    Thanks to Bob for getting me hooked up with some new shoes for my wife's Avant. I wish it was lower but the daily driver and 3 kids I think it's gotta stay at stock ride height. It reminds me of when I was a kid and my next door neighbour's dad was pressured by his wife to buy a wooden panel station wagon. His reply was "OK, but I get to pick the wheels and engine!"



    They are 18x8.5 and lighter than the BBS RC on my Golf, full of forged goodness and with the gunmetal on the inside hopefully they will hide a bit of the brake dust.



    yep, that's the rear wheel



    pretty much flush without spacers

      Sh*t TSW has stepped up their game not sure why we don't see more of them. Those wheels look awesome.

        Yeah, according to Bob, they are HRE quality, forged, and crazy light. When I saw them on the car I knew he hadn't steered me wrong. I was planning on going with something other than mesh, but didn't find anything in 18" I liked as much as these.

                      The Nurburgring is a fully Rotary Forged wheel, light weight (We had a 19x8.5 weighed and it came in at a very respectable 22.4 lbs!) and looks great to boot! Pricing is currently very reasonable for this level of wheel (varying by size but typically in the $300'ish - $400'ish per wheel price range)...

                      Yes, TSW has stepped up their game for sure with the intoduction of this rim!
