Picked this up yesterday morning and drove 1 mile to the wheel shop. I can't explain how incredible the S5 is....exterior is obvious, but interior is so ergonomic, finished, intuitive....everything. I was accidently hitting the redline on various shifts....simply because I honestly could not hear the engine or feel any vibration- the cabin is so luxurious, solid, and quiet. The whole MMI technology is absolutely a dream....it just all works on so many different levels. The coolest thing is that I have yet to see another S5 on the road down here in south Florida....and I drive alot. Not because I just bought it, but in terms of price/value the S5 is a 10 out of 10...not overhyped at all.....now if someone can just explain to me how to insert my photos for you...sorry about that!

Yea the a5 is really quiet from the inside too you cant shift by hearing until you get used to it and you obviously cant have music then. Congratulations though! good luck with it post up some pictures

Isn't there a way to post the photo directly into the body without doing the photobucket link?

Why go to photobucket when you can just upload to your personal gallery on the forum and link to that?

Stock wheels look better IMHO. Those look like something I would see on a Maxima or Altima.

yea a set of works, iforged, or hre's would have really set it off

Agreed, those rims are not a good look. Stock is perfect.

MOFSTEEL we are agreeing more and more...

Love the HRE Monoblok's... unfortunately $7000-$8000 for wheels just rubs me the wrong way.

Meh, everyone wants to be more like me. Im not surprised. [>_<]
Yeah, thats a hefty price to pay for some wheels.

You could always go with the BBS ck's.
They might be a little heavy but they sure are purrty.

Time to start over. Try to get some of your money back for the rims and pay for a drop. The S5 is a almost perfect stock. Do not ruin it. Not saying that you should copy the few examples of nicely done S5's but you are going in the wrong direction in my opinion. Sorry.

Peace

Unfortunately they don't make them for Audi's. Not sure how they got them but must have had them made or redrilled.

the P40 fitment for porsche has been known to fit on the rs4 and s5.

I know they make them for Mercedes so they should fit the S5 since they have the same center bore and they are both 5X112. You can probably get those in any offset you want to make them fit perfectly.

There was a CLK Black Series at SEMA that had these in matte black. They looked great.

That's why I said in my opinion. He can definitely ruin his S5 if he wants to.

beautiful car, congrats on the purchase

... as for the wheels, they are way too rice and do not flow with the rest of the car AT ALL.

Awesome car man. Love the s5! Holy lips on those wheels batman! I think it would look a little bit nicer with a set of Monoblocks, but I'm partial. [:D]
