I do like the 19" split rim BBS's but refurb and new tyres will bump the price up and I don't want to spend too much on this car as its meant to be a more a of a cheaper workhorse than previous Audi's.

The Calitos are too similar to the Mk4 R32's Aristos and the Clio V6's so I want a bit of a change.

I've found some new 20 spoke BBS's with Conti's on German Ebay starting at 1280 euros but I haven't emailed about them yet as I don't know if I can be bothered using a translator trying to find out whether or not they'd post to the UK and if they did how much the postage they would charge, and with the Euro the way it is against the Pound it may work out too much.

How about these ones?

They're £749 with premium economy tyres so maybe around £900 with decent tyres.
