they would be pricey, but that dealer does have the best prices around I would think...

this is the member that just sold his 32's...perhaps you could send him a pm for more info about where he purchased and for how much

Not a fan. Way too many spokes. Keep looking.

Aren't the 124's made by BBS and they are garbage! They bend and crack all the time. If they are BBS then not all BBS wheels are that great!

The ones you are looking at are a bit too busy for my taste, but its your car! If you like go for it!!!

Lol!, I used to have BBS on my Audi and they sucked!, but these looked nice, I want to replace my current 20" replicas, but I want some 20"s that would fit like a glove and won't vibrate!

Any suggestions?

Find a brand that doesn't require hub rings - there are plenty from VMR, DPE, etc. Look around, because (according to many recent threads) the ones that require hub rings vibrate quite a bit. Contact Michael (acuteperformance)
