too much stretch and 205's are too small for a car that weighs as much as the S4 does.
Obviously the look of a car is 100% subjective. I think the car looks gorgeous...however, as I stated, I think function over form is more applicable to the s4 for both reasons of performance and safety.
Running a 205 might work and be safe on a ratted out mkI with 8.5" wheels, which I admit I like in certain instances. But, I have to agree with notorious. Far to small of a tire for a ~3500 lb. Car of any kind.
^^still lookin for a black one?? Hahaha black sucks! Those wheels on that car are gorgeous, im hoping to have a set of those soon enough. Im an idiot and let my brother take the OEM USP wheels that were on the car when I bought it just because they were in poor shape.

You go into the garage, jack his car up and steal them. He will never notice! And yes, im still on the search for a black one, I dont know why i love it so much when I know its the most difficult color EVER to keep clean

Thought the same thing. Just figured it was a typo...or he meant to say OEM-look.
Yes, yes, typo, my apologies. I wasnt thinking at all when I posted that. They were OEM USP wheels. I must've meant to say that but had RS4's in my mind. Heres my setup:
VMR V701
18x8.5
ET35
235/40-18 Continental DWS
Stasis Engineering Street Sport Coilovers
No fender modifications, no rubbing
**drop coming soon along with GTF measurement. will update.
lol it's only gone to shit because people like you are saying it's gone to shit. The only posts in here that are stupid is the one directly above yours and that guy just completely missed the point.

Reason: added picture
Gracious! It does rub slighty, big dips are another story. Will prob get a stiffer coilover setup and F&R adjustable control arms in the future.
god do I need adjustable control arms....
..on a side note, just found out I cant drop my car even the slightest as my HFC's rub on my garage entrance. guess its just a reason to get test pipes..
