I just sold my coilovers suspension, and long beach wheels, so now I'm shopping for wheels to go with a 337 suspension.

Problem is that it's hard to find a 17" wheel that looks good on a MK4 with 1.5" of wheelgap. The only two wheels I've narrowed it down to is the RS4 replica's or S4 replica's. I think either of those two wheels, properly spaced could look pretty nice even with the higher ride height.

Dubguyvr6's 20th with RS4 and same ride height as 337

S4 wheels with same ride height

I can't really think of any other wheels that can look decent on that ride height. If you have any suggestions, send them this way!

I've ruled out anything with a lip, it looks akward with wheelgap.

myself I love the S4's, and I guess the sport Audi wheels that texas posted would do the same trick. Maybe some TT fat-fives, or are the RS4s and S4s your only 2 oem choices? if not, maybe some Merc wheels would be nice

Why did you go with 337 suspension just curious?

Are you looking for just 17"? no 18-19?

the RS4 wheels are nice but since there's already a montrealer with those wheels... try the porsches on the mk4.
