Depends where you are. If you're in Toronto:

OZ rims - Wheel and Tire Zone
BBS rims - W&TZ and Independent Tuning
RS4 reps - Indepedent Tuning

Going to get a set of 18" RS4 (2nd gen) installed sometime this week.

If you want used:
This is an excerpt from an email I got last week. The wheels are in Calgary. PM me if you want the guys address etc.
"They are BBS RX 17x8 ET 35 with a 5x112 bolt pattern. The tires (225/45 ZR17 Bridgestones) have about
60% tread left on them. One of the wheels has some curb rash around about 1/3 of the lip from me rubbing a gas pump island The other three wheels are near perfect. I'm looking for $1200 CDN."
Also try these guys in Canada:
http://www.1010tires.com/
Or this http://www.tiretrends.com/index.php3
or http://www.independenttuning.ca/ in the GTA

hope this helps

They tried to rip my buddy off huge for his truck wheels. Their price was $5000. I sent him to Automotive Import Market and he got quoted under $3000.

Thanks for the heads up MAlby7. I'm gonna keep a closer eye on their price, and I'll definitely shop around, especially since people have suggested so many different places.
