These are the Audi RS4 9-spoke replicas from DiscountTireDirect. Aside from it not having a lip (I don't like them) what do you think? Can someone photoshop them unto a tC?

Examples of this wheel (the one from above won't come with an Audi center cap, of course):

well, I don't like lip, not european in style.

(most european performance/luxury car has the spokes starting deep in the center and going out to the edge of the rim. Even the 7-spoke Infiniti G35 wheels is like that, too)



Ok, aside from it not having a deep lip, which I'd never get, what do you think of the design?

Looks like a stock Audi wheel.
Nothing special in my opinion. Any Porsche look-a-likes available?

Porsche = Favorite car maker!

well, they are designed like the Audi RS4 wheels, obviously.

But that's like saying that the BMW M3 wheels are stock, too.

The Audi RS4 (last generation) is the high-end Audi A4 variant with 380 hp =)

I think they're kinda too blocky looking for a tC
