One alloy required Kahn rsr 17"

Audi A4 1997 by the way 5 stud

Get some less pikey wheels. Like RS8 or TT wheels.

WTF is pikey about plain 5 spoke wheels? You muppet :)

I have 3 of these flatspotted due to unavoidable (at the time) potholes. They seem to be ultimately weak alloys.

So you're saying they're shit then? Shit cheap alloys aren't pikey nowadays?

Coyoteboy ( snipped-for-privacy@hotmail.com) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :

No, you have three flatspotted due to the driver going too fast for the road conditions.

Typical aftermarket alloys then. Audi suspension won't help much either.

Isn't a suspension system as optional as the aftermarket alloy?

As the OP is an Audi driver then from experience thats probably the case here.

No, they're just fairly light - its a tradeoff of weight and strength that you have to choose. You arent meant to drive them through 8 inch deep, stepped holes in the road.

No, I have one flatspotted alloy due to the driver going too fast for the road conditions, i have two flatspotted ones from a wagon swerving last minute AT me, coming the opposite way, and having to avoid him by going into the pothole I had happily been avoiding. But i can see why you think that.

Not on an Audi, on a Celica.

Bollocks! You must have tried to kill him!

Fair play.

That makes a change...

A lot of arguing but no real answers, crap or not err can you get them? It was actually caused by kerbing, the bottom line is if i cant get an individual one, Im going to have to get a full set of alloys to match my tyres, not what I really wanted to do.

Light, strong, cheap. Pick two...

I'd be very surprised if you couldn't. It's easier to ring round a bunch of alloy wheel suppliers rather than trying to get people here to do your googling for you though...

Absolutely right. Except life isnt black and white and there are varying degrees of each which can be shuffled around.

Drat, caught out :)

I often agree with what you say, like most people I have a defense system that argues automatically. I've learned to switch that off :-)

rs8 :) sexy. Seen a few lately on MK4 golfs. Look great on black golfs lowered.
