Have you looked at MB Battles? Look pretty similar

Yeh, I looked them up a little bit ago. Not bad, but looking for something slightly different. We need an import wheel thread here, so I can get some better ideas.

Funny that battles are mentioned because a guy here in town is selling Teal MB Battles in 18x9.5 +15 all the way around, not sure what he's asking though.

Those XXRs looks great and are super cheap....I would personally be concerned with the quality of them, however.

Yeh, just about all the concave wheel sellers are uber expensive. How do I know?!? Well most don't list prices, and tend to have their wheels on $100k cars.... And the funny thing is most of the designs are the same.... So if you guys have ideas for other concave style wheels that don't cost 3 months of mortgage payments, I'm up for suggestions. I really did like this style though.

Years ago, I remember when front wheel drive and flush wheels where new. Many of the RWD guys were trying to figure out how to use these "new" wheels on their rides. Some came up with mega spacers/adaptors to run the flush wheels!

I'm with you, I tend to like some "dish" to my wheels.

Hey Dave, you should check out Forgestar Wheels, they make a lot of quality, concave style wheels for a good price. Lots of sizes and custom offsets and finishes, too.

Concave F14's:

I like those wheels that chickenwafer posted. Those would look great on your Audi.

LOL Ian he said he wanted inexpensive wheels, ADV1's are FAR from that, not to mention the jury is still out on the quality IMO.

hmm inexpensive... linea corse wheels are pretty inexpensive. theyre made more for the euro cars.

Linea Corsa = not concave, tho. Finding inexpensive concave wheels is in Euro fitment is a challenge.
