Wheels are an approved mod, apparently.

Well actually, I had a bit of a $75 tyre moment this morning when I pulled out fast from a junction then came off the throttle and almost understeered into a kerb.
I was going to leave the wheel/tyre purchase for a while but I didn't enjoy that. Pirellis coming on the new wheels.

This is awesome. A build thread thats not supposed to be a build thread ;D

I vote for AUDI/OEM wheels, and would probably be cheaper! Those DTM wheels are so cool...

Yep, well worth the change...............now for the springs
Only needs a very small drop IMO

I may be getting old but I don't think it needs a drop. I like it how it is and I love the smooth ride.

By the way my daughter has named the A4 - it will henceforth be known as Growly Bear.



I'm a bit paranoid about kerbs now...

I think  set of H&R Springs will be just the ticket. Or find someone that has installed new springs on their RS4 and see if you can get the old ones for a steal

i am old and yes, drop it (slightly)

;D

RobClubley

What about when I want to go off-roading? :D

H&Rs would drop about 40mm I think. But it's not happening.

Love the car but agree with the others, that arch gap needs a haircut.
