Here is some more porn. They wanted $10,000.00 for these special built custom wheels. I said I would think about it. ![http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36227&stc=1](http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36227&stc=1) - - - Updated - - - ![http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36229&stc=1](http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36229&stc=1) - - - Updated - - - I am not really into black wheels anymore. - - - Updated - - - Carbon Fiber wheels would be sweet however. ---

^^Thanks! When I first saw it online I assumed it was custom until I saw the paint under the hood matched. I was thinking, did they disassemble the entire car to paint it?!? Then I read about the factory sample match. (Which Audi no longer offers) ---

I would rather spend $15,000 on CF wheels and actually have significant performance gains. (Probably not going to happen either way. 🙂 ) Edit: They would look great with all of the other CF pieces on my car however. 😃 ---

I think I saw this listed on Ebay a little bit ago. I have seen the RS7 before and thought they were great… then I saw this color. Awesome purchase, congrats! 10k wheels on a daily driver though? eeesh, no way. ---
