From A6 toG35X

Hi I was a Audi a6 Quattro driver until.I got a G35X. The G35 is awesome! It will smoke my a6 any day of the week! The audi is a 3.0.Dont get me wrong I still like my audi.But the G is alot more fun to drive! The audi's ride is alittle smoother. It is a bigger car. I will be getting some new wheels maybe VMR 710.what are some good wheels in the $900 a set range? Your input will be appreciated. Thanks

What year is your car? I would go with OEM 19" rays. Thats your best bet for $900. Could find a set with tires too

Check out our marketplace for some great deals on used wheels. But if 900 is including tires, get oem rays. If you can afford to spend a bit more, and don't mind replica wheels, you can get a set of varrstoens for around $1100

The VMR's seem to be a good choice, just make sure you do your research on sizes and offsets so that they fit like you want em to.

Stock sizes are 17x7 +45. The bolt pattern is 5x114.3. what offset you need will depend on how wide you wanna go.

^correct.

Also I suggested varrstoens but I retract that statement. Stick with quality forged wheels!

^or at least higher quality cast wheels if you just absolutely can't afford forged.

Thanks, The G35x is everything the a6 isn't! The more miles I put in the G35 I notice how much the G35 is a drivers car!! It is a little smaller than a6.The only thing I wish it has compared to the a6 is the paint.Audi paint is incredibly smooth! I will either get Enkei or VMR wheels. Thanks guys you have been a great help!

Infinti paint is not that good. It's very soft. If you do any sort of highway driving and have good paint on your nose, look into a clear bra.

If i showed you my front bumper...you'd cry.
