    Since you asked, look at the brake caliper in relation to the spokes in the 1st and 2nd pictures. Wheels 1, 3, 4 are the same. Wheel 2 is different.

    It's from a casting change from earlier Audi 4000's when they were using the same cast for AWD and FWD wheels (thicker spokes). The wheel in Picture 2 (thinner spokes) is from the 85-87 Audi 4000's that were FWD and premium options.

    Well, they're on mismatched tires also, so it's not like they're a pristine set of 14" wheels with matching tires.

    They're a good looking OEM wheel. That's it. Your price is about $150 too high.
