Bentley Wheels?

Hey Guys,

Someone I know selling his Bentley wheels for hella cheap and same off sets as our cars but what would you guys think? They need a lil TLC but I think it might look unique? They are OEM 2peice forge. Here is a picture of the wheel

Dj Bentley wheels are win. I knew a few guys who ran those exact wheels on S4/RS4 B6/B7 when I was on audizine. (makes me miss both of those cars thinking about it) I think the look awesome on those platforms.

Maybe that Hyperblack you do on the centers??

Trying to picture the GT's on an E55...havent found a pic of it. I'm Sure it would be interesting. Maybe someone can photoshp for an idea?

I def agree that running the Bentley centercap sucks-but there was a silver S4 awhile back that ran the GT splits with a custom audi center. It really looked fresh on the silver, and he had the rear hub machined so the offset wasn't as bad. This was a few years back I can't find the pics. Problem with doing this is some will appreciate, some will hate the fact that it's a diff manufacturer wheel. Whatever. Those GT's might look poop on the E55 anyway. Can't picture it.

A Bentley's Centerbore which was the same as Audi's and VW is a 57mm while MB's is a 66.5mm.
Good luck with getting that to fit.

Love Bentley wheels, just a heads up, you will have to get the centers bored, because they are the same centerbore as Audi/VW. Same with Lambo wheels.


And some pictures to make my post more interesting :P







gallardo wheels:

This is a stupid generalization. I've owned 2 audi's, and a VW...not to mention many other cars. Japanese/American/German blahblah. I've always been a fan of "OEM plus" style. I didn't have Bentley wheels on my Audis, as the style just isn't for ME, I think some setups look nice and are original and different.

I'm not really brand loyal, I'm an auto enthusiast. But EVERY make has their fanboys, and every make has owners who's cars are modded (in your opinion or mine) in poor taste.

Sorry for the rant, but I have seen alot of this on this board, and there's plenty of cars that I've seen on here that make me want to VOM. No need for the stereotypes.

The stock E55 wheels blow away all of the hideous designs in this thread.

Amen, I've been very active on Audi, VW, Mercedes, and a few other forums, and I can say that by far, the Audi section I was in was the most welcoming, friendly, and helpful forum I've been on.


As for the Bentley/Lambo wheel discussion: They are all owned by VW/Audi, and all their wheels are direct bolt ons for all their cars.. And they can be had for less than a lot of other wheels, and look great on the cars they've been put on for the most part.


But hey, who can argue taste with a bunch of guys with 5 spoke 3-piece iForged, DPE, HRE's, and the like
