    Best looking rims on a D3 A8??

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm really considering buying a 2005 Audi A8, and trying to find pics of A8s with nice rims on them. I came across this picture and think these rims are simply amazing on it!! Post some pics of an A8 with aftermarket rims that you think look good

    That is going to be a tough question here. Some people like the more spokes on the D3 but then again people like me and my Liberty VIP fam like the fullface look. I think a deep dish mesh wheel would look good.
    I'm currently experimenting with wheels too.
    Here a past pic of my Ame setup



    For now im trying the Spoke look out




    I will be changing the wheels more as time goes now, let me know if you have any wheel questions.

    I think both of the above belong to VW and look bad on A8

    You must be a mesh type of person... Mesh wheels would look good on the D3, but you would HAVE to get a BBK cause the stock brakes would look gross behind a nice mesh wheel.

    Well, if you think they both look bad, please post a pic of what you think looks good!

    Its funny, cause I am thinking about getting d3 myself and was browsing for the wheels myself couple of nights ago.
    These are my favorites so far. Remember, that A8 should look classy, well, at least in my opinion

    Yes Sir! Once you lower the D3 on links, the ride is so-so, but if you custom make links to lower it pass the 1-3 inchs the ride really gets rough. So, thats would i really wanted to change the suspension so i could ride super low, but the ride be as comfortable as a Luxurious A8 should be:)

    So I was driving home earlier tonight and I saw this A8 parked on the street. I had to turn around and take this crappy picture, but these Asanti wheels look so damn nice on it!



    Went to Asanti's website, here are the rims:

    Are you asking about the multi spoke ones? They are MRR HR4 - I have a set of 19" (5000 miles on tires). I'll sell them to you if you want.
