need some input on choosing rims for my euro...

so, im torn between these 2 rims.... 18" euroline DH, or 18" amg aero II.... these will be going on my 06 audi a3 so no crazy offsets here. widths and offsets are close to stock so there wont be any rubbing issues. its just i really dig both these rims (and no, i cant buy em both.. although i would really love to). AMGs are 5x112 so itll bolt right up, DHs are 5x114 so ill have to use hubcentric rings and wobble bolts. AMGs are state side, DHs are in japan. both of them shipped to hawaii will be about the same price, its just the DHs i gotta buy the rings and wobble bolts...

I'd go with the amg aero II for the mere uniqueness of them and staying german. Both are nice either way. DH's are classic but have been done before.

I vote DH mostly because it would be weird putting old Benz wheels on a new Audi.

see, benz's, vw/audi, and bentleys all got the same bolt pattern so alot of euro guys run whatever on whatever... dudes even throw corvette C4 sawblades on vw/audis via adaptors. corvettes and bmw's share the same bolt pattern as well so its not odd to see corvette saw blades on bmw's... im leaning towards the eurolines just becauase... but the amg's would be so sweet...

I know its not an option of the two but the wheels in the top left hand corner of the AMG wheels I think would look sweet on the Audi. But if I had to choose out of the wheels you posted I say I would go DH.

Here's one of my favorite A3's on 19in staggered DPE ST7s. The Eurolines will look good on the A3.

out of the two I'd probably be leaning more towards the AMG with color matched centers

The Eurolines are probably my top 3 favorite wheel, but for this application I'd have to say AMG. Something cool about rocking old school Benz wheels on a new Audi. Especially if you got them to sit out flush like your VW/Audi dudes do well.

x2. I'm a benz owner so it would be strange if I put Audi wheels on mine. Go with the Eurolines.

Are those AMG wheels from RB Wheels? If so, I was looking at them too. Great price but I believe they are 18"s.
