[s-cars] Dreaming of New Wheels - '92S4

[Mike Bishoff]

Folks - I'm about to buy fresh all-season rubber for my '92S4 and would like
to have the wheels look pretty like they used to years ago. I'm using the
stock rims and would prefer to keep them or something that looks like them
vs. an aftermarket wheel. The wheels are biffed up around the edges (curb
rash. from previous owners!) and the paint is variously faded and
discolored. The plastic center caps look almost new.
 
I've talked to Foster Wheels in Ballard and they say they can fix them so
they look like new by filling the curb rash and then repainting the entire
wheel. This is likely to cost about $120-$140 per rim.
 
So, my questions are: Is it worth spending $600 to get my wheels fixed? Or.
should I find someone locally that has nice (really nice) stock Audi rims
that they're interested in parting with? I'm not necessarily hung up on
having the exact 92S4 wheels, but stock 16" Audi wheels for sure.
 
Thanks for any help and insight.
