I've no experience with the supplier or that brand of wheels.
I do however have a lot of experience with problems with cheap, off-brand alloy wheels. They quality can be wildly variable and I've seen a lot of 'ebay special' wheels buckle quite badly without much provocation.
I'd be tempted to go for a genuine Audi set or some from a reputable brand:

They are so so cheap, who makes them ? Ask the questions your self
I have just paid £1000 for 4 x 17 inch Enkei wheels , even these are on the cheap side of things , but are made using high
Pressure casting and semi forging system , and Enkei supply a lot of major manufacturers with wheels.
Rota alloys are cheap but are only cast and even these are now being copied by Far East knock of merchants which I bet those fleabag ones are
You can spend lots, 3k plus for forged wheels , but you pays your money and in the end get what you pay for , bit tricky barreling into a corner finding a little bump and finding those nice new spokes snapping !
