Navin,
Its about the perception..If one person wants to spend on looks and the other wants to spend on ICE.
Alloys do help in improving ride quality. Because of less sprung weight on the suspension.
Besides looks, they are lighter in weight than the stamped wheel (provoided you buy good quality ones (forged).
Cooling of brake discs and calipers is better in alloys than the standard wheel. Hence they last longer.
They don't get bent easily because of more rigidity.
The steering feel gets improved again because of reduction in weight.
But in our country looks is the only reason for people put alloys.
Take off the spider alloys from your RS and put the standard skoda rider rims you will know the importance of alloys
