WTB: 17" wheels for B5.5 Passat

[tintin]

I'm looking for some OEM VW or Audi (A4 wheels will fit right?) wheels to put some summer rubber on. I have no idea what's out there, I just know my current wheels are lame and keeping their grippy winters on them.

Opinions and wheels for sale would be appreciated!

i have a set of 17" Axis Se7ens (not se7en mods) I am trying to sell, need new rubber anyways but in great shape, $700 for all 4 wheels.

Those Axis wheels aren't really my style. Thanks for suggesting them though.

I wonder if anyone has (or if they will fit correctly) the 17" BBS RC from the A6??

I had RCs on my golf and loved them.

check audiworld or audizine forums for sales on oem wheels.. i always see stock 17" s4 avus wheels for sale.. or just buy brand new replicas as they are pretty cheap anyways

thanks for the tip Ryan.

Do you know if the offset is the same between the A4 and the B5.5 Passat? If so, what years of Audi would match up?

96-01.5 for sure... and I believe the b6 model, so 02-06?
