the Avant's new 20 X 9 35mm ET

Kim and I talked it over and felt that the only mod we're going to be doing will be cosmetic ie more show than go. With that being said and knowing that we'll be moving up to an A6 we decided that the wheel we get for the Avant should easily transfer over and still look great.

The wheels were offered to me at a price I couldn't pass up and after some short dilberation...it was a GO. We're waiting for the tires to come next week where we'll get them mounted and onto the car. Now Kim will be blingin w/ her DUBS and her RING [:D]

Some may disagree that 20's are too big for the A4 but who cares...it looks GREAT [:D]

thanks for waiting now enjoy the show...

Not very scientific but you get the idea...not bad for a 20" wheel

Funny their manufactured here and then shipped to Switzerland...

to answer your question...I was previously running 19x8.5 25mm ET

I've modded the fender up front to compensate for the potential rubbing. As for the rears...yes they will rub they rubbed w/ 25mm ET probably not as much on 35mm but you gots to pay to play.

unbelievable - some of us have 19's and drop to 18's, others have 19's and go up to 20's. I wish I lived in socal so I could be a baller like that - DC roads are just too unforgiving =)

foofighter
07-08-2004, 06:27 PM
Well my previous wheels were heavier than that if you can imagine some 18's or 19's weigh more than this so it's all good [:D]

07-08-2004, 06:28 PM
Wow.

You're really going to run those on the A4 huh? May the force be with you, my son.

IMO, they will look that much hotter on the A6, and will be a "perfect fit". Damn you, I'm jealous of a car you don't even have yet! [mad]

07-08-2004, 08:20 PM
*** yawn ***

Hope you have some big brakes to go under those big wheels.

Just kidding. Awesome purchase. You should get these wheels their own insurance policy. I can't imagine how much tires will run you.

foofighter
07-08-2004, 08:26 PM
oh snap: the S4 Brakes will have to suffice for the time being...that's all the modding i'm doing on this avant that and the S4 rear bumper.

No kidding bout the insurance...well they will get attention as there's only 2 in the US that has these on an audi...the other is on the AutoSportWerks Avant.

I'm getting some Toyo Proxy 4's should get them this coming week.

i deal w/ Todd the head sales cheese from the start of this money pit of a project. They've had them in stock so it was just a matter of me getting off the dime to spend the jing! I think i've run into terry a couple times that i've been there but never talked to him.

Hi...I'm thinking of purchasing 20x9's for my A4...I find out the only tires out there are BF Goodrich or Nitto's 225 X 30 X 20..each tire cost 420 each...is that what your finding out there ???

Thanks

oh crap those sportec dubs will look awesome on your black a4

foofighter
07-10-2004, 12:16 PM
yes the ideal size is 30 but those are hard to come by as you stated and very expensive...i ended up using Toyo's which only has 35 in the 20's in the size needed which changes the overal diameter a little over .5" not a big difference...but w/ their sponsorship of the tires you can't be picky!

jesseahhstyle
07-16-2004, 10:33 AM
Damn duan! I heard about this from a friend so i went on the hunt! Amazed once again... but only thing that puzzles me is why are you dropping all this $ into your a4 when your gonna turn around and sell it and get the avant?

But why are you wanting to get the S4 US rear for the a4? Seems like a cool thing to do if your gonna get your $ back later. those rims are gonna look slicker than ice on the A6.
