isnt that what lots of people on here have? like the 3 red tours in a row in the calender????
i say find something that less people have. rs5's look real good, but so do a lot of other rims that arent so well represented on our cars.
however, this is just my opinion. if you really like them then get 'em. if i were to get rims, i would most likely steer clear of rs5's though.
A lot of people have them because they hit on three targets at once: 1) Good looking, 2) Light weight, and 3) Low price.
It's a combo that's hard to find. If you're worried about looking like everyone else on the CEG, then you'll get something else.
I'd like to think I was immune to such considerations, but I'll admit that I liked the Konig Tantrums much better before I saw them on, like, every Honda in town. I've still never seen an RS5 in person, though.

very good point. me being me, i would rather look a little harder and find something not so popular. but opinions are opinions, and you cant hate anyone for their own.
i will agree, RS5's do look very good. i would go a different route though. . . .
