If you chromed the lips instead of polished them, then they would have been super easy to clean.

Here are those volks on a M3. Good quality rims, but interesting how the brand has migrated from the Japanese imports to the euro scene.

VERY NICE! especially with the staggered setup, which you unfortunatelly can't really do (or shouldn't at least) on the Audi due to it being all wheel drive - quatto.

volk racing wheels have come along way. they are very stylish, non chrome (factory) & very light, but expensive - but NOT as bad as HREs.

i believe the 18x8 or 18x9 weight in right at 17-18lbs./wheel w/out tire for the LE37T's

Looks great! Nice job on the paining and the painted caliper adds to the look.
