You sir don't know what your talking about! Mexican? It couldn't be anymore euro. If you think that is Mexican what do you think is euro? Tinted tales, vinyled blacked out trim and tsws.. Wrong! This car made its debut a few months back used to be mordaines car but now belongs to Eric Johnston. I would post the link but I'm On my phone. Car looks great Eric!

I know a lot of people on here like bags, but IMHO they look so much better on old classic cars, not on modern Audi's. To me, bags with chrome rims on Audis look ghetto. Audi's are not meant to be put on bags, nor are they meant to have chrome rims. Again, this is just my opinion as I know a lot of you would disagree, but it's a forum, so I'm entitled to my opinion right? Ok, maybe not, flame on. On a side note I do appreciate the photography, nice shots.

It's an extension of the dubber scene. I can respect it for what it is, but definitely agree Audis look best when tuned as performance sedans, or drawing on their rally credentials. The low rider thing will always be lesser than those in my eyes.

we need more people like you...who can express their opinion and say they dislike the car but then can still appreciate the car for what it is...
its these ass holes who know nothing and go around bashing shit just because they dont like it...and that makes them look like idiots...
because true car enthusiasts can appriciate a car for what it is and the amount of work put into it...even if its not their style...

Your right about everyone being entitled to there opinion like what I did blah blah.. It's seems like some of those who do not like this look dont exactly know what there looking at. For example those WHEELS are polished aluminum not chrome! They are BBS wheels made in Germany I guess you could say that's what makes them euro? I'm not sure I'd mount these wheels on my car but I can sure appreciate them for what they are on such a clean car.

What makes it Euro is the fact that a LOT of the dubbers in the scene out here are doing the same thing.

I don't get why people believe A4's should be fixed up as performance sedans... They aren't... Maybe sporty, but thats about the extent.. I think they are the perfect car to go form over function on.. They are beautiful cars, and this is for me damn near perfection.

I admit my AWE exhaust is loud (sometimes more than I would have wanted), but it was the best-quality quad tip exhaust on the market a few years ago. I think sporty wheels and blacking some chrome out (because I'm not a big fan of chrome) is still classy, but completely blacked out just looks douchebaggy. Slammed on the ground is like taking the history of Audi and throwing it in the trash. It's all about modding in a balanced way. OP's drop is way too extreme for me.

BBS RS's just doesn't achieve the same look on a B7 then it does on a older Vdub. Heck I don't think it works on a B6. However, respect the original idea and the work done to it...In the end its your car, so enjoy it.

But then he won't be hiding the yucky wheels [;)] only teasing. I guess I'm just getting tired of the dub scene. I don't think the car looks horrible by any means, but I think that kind of drop takes away from what an Audi is. I never really got into the "how much can my ride drop and how low can my offset be" mentality, but I know there are many people (mostly in the age range of 16-25) who really love this kind of stance. Audi owners got sucked into the VW rub-a-dub-dub world it seems, but I'm sure the car show world will change eventually, just as every other trend does.

This is the millionth thread in the past week that just ends up becoming an argument of what B7's are made for and what B7 looks the best.
Everybody has there own taste, everybody makes there own choices, and everybody has there own opinions.

I'm sick of people barging into threads just giving there so called "constructive criticism". If you have a comment, leave it in a respectful opinion.
Not in a matter of telling them it looks retarded and explaining what is better or what it should be.

This shit gets old fast. So just let people share without it turning into a i'm better than you dispute. [headbang][evilsmile]

Everyone who knows half a thing about BBS wheels (obviously missed the bus in this forum) know that 18 RSs are extremely difficult to get a hold of. Yes these are a hybrid set, but IIRC they use all OEM BBS parts, which means the lips are BBS lips, not Rotiform lips. If you ask me, i dont think tuck looks good on this car, they way the car was setup before (bigger rear spacer, fender sat on tire) would be exactly how i would have it, shit if i could get the front to tuck id do that and poke the rear (personal preference). All in all, this car is extremely clean and a perfect example of "less is more" and if you guys knew the story behind this car you would realize that to many (including myself and everyone who frequents the FTWLTBDICTW thread.) this is much more than a car.

That's horribly incorrect. As fafa said before you posted, and lENrok1 posted, they are 100% original BBS parts. And even then, to say that the lips compose 80% of a wheel's identity is ridiculous. The face is what people buy the wheel for. Its what makes a wheel and defines it.

Now you are saying we like any car that is slammed to the ground. The white A4 posted is horribly modded, and has disgusting wheels. The second car posted has the actual BBS's. I would take the second car. And then I would lower it more and space the wheels out more.

So you know, the specific wheel is VERY important.. We don't just like any multi-piece or rare wheels. Or any car that happens to be sitting on the ground on air, or even stanced.

The only Rotiform part about those wheels is the fact that Brian and Jason put those together. Other than that, all OEM.

LMAO at the one who would pick a shitty rep LM in the Linea Corsa over the forged 3 piece RS. You people have to understand, the fast train left the b7 A LONG TIME AGO, I live this painfully everyday through my main man Fafa who one day had a dream of going fast. These cars look so amazing sitting low to the ground with our subframes kissing the floor on a daily basis.

This car has ALOT of flair and class, as the owner before Eric did an amazing job putting this car together and Eric is tweaking things to give it a personality of it's own. As far as my taste goes, i'd rather have a little more flushness going on than the tucked look, but each car is an extension of the tuner's mindset, so props to Eric for probably having the lowest b7 A4 and making it look so right.

This is exactly what I'm trying to say. The whole point of a forum is to give your asshole, I mean opinion on a thread. If you choose to "hate" or say anything negative why bother. Your better off using the back arrow on your keyboard and maybe stay away from the majority. The majority of us on these type of threads are in the stance/wheel fitment scene.

I never once say anything negative on those who rock vmr's or rs4 reps. if that's your thing, do you! To each their own. I can appreciate a clean car regardless if it's something I would drive.

I kind of wish I liked the low stance/rubbing/air ride thing since there are a lot of meets with this style popularized (especially around Miami), but it never appealed to me. After all is said and done, I am just glad there are people out there who are willing to put a lot of work into their car so that others can see examples and take whichever route they want.

Hey I could be mistaken about the makeup of the wheel. Is the barrel original? I appreciate any non-butt hurt responses caring to explain.


Couldn't have said it better. These kids just don't understand the A4 is NOT a fast car, its a fucking 4-cylinder sedan.

This whole fast car backlash is a complete strawman. I think it goes back to me saying I prefer the performance look. Fast is not a requirement of a performance sedan, it's part of it, but not all of it. To me, the B7 is a performance sedan in that it is a sporty driver's car- I wouldn't drive it if it wasn't. And anything I do to my car is going to be with the intent of making it more so. I don't care about being fast, never have. That doesn't mean I don't want to have a sporty performance setup to my wheels and tires, they're two completely different things.

Only criticism is from the rear 3/4 angle (below) the rear wheel is too tucked for my liking.

Beautiful B7. wheels are outstanding, maybe raise it 3 inches at the rear and one at the front and it is perfect, these wheels are perfect for the car IMO awesome car, and its nice to see a non s line looking so good! great euro!

I'm looking forward to Eric finishing this up and tucking the front wheel just as much as the rear. Haters will hate, but it's going to look soooo good when it's done.

This is the millionth thread in the past week that just ends up becoming an argument of what B7's are made for and what B7 looks the best.
Everybody has there own taste, everybody makes there own choices, and everybody has there own opinions.

I'm sick of people barging into threads just giving there so called "constructive criticism". If you have a comment, leave it in a respectful opinion.
Not in a matter of telling them it looks retarded and explaining what is better or what it should be.

This shit gets old fast. So just let people share without it turning into a i'm better than you dispute. [headbang][evilsmile]


thank God someone in here has some common sense .... this shit does get old fast .. everyone has different taste .... A TRUE auto enthusiast can appreciate and respect different styles of moding. ... As fot the person who made the Mexican statement ... are you serious? what does someone's nationality have to do with the mod??? go play on a busy highway ...

Couldn't have said it better. These kids just don't understand the A4 is NOT a fast car, its a fucking 4-cylinder sedan.

So is an EVO or STI, and my car is faster than stage 3 S4s, I'd say it's quick

And a true auto enthusiast would not pinstripe a Ford Fiesta or put bags on a McLaren F1. It's not that I don't appreciate the style, it's that I don't appreciate it on an Audi. Again... it's just my opinion. If you want constructive criticism I'd say I'd much rather see a lowered sport tuned suspension with low-profile wheels, if you like the lowered look. Maybe some pictures at ride height would change my mind.

This forum can be so gay sometimes... who cares about the story of the car or whether someone doesn't dig it or not... wheels are pimp, just not on the A4 (IMO), everything looks quality though including the pictures.

Cars have more meaning when there is a story behind em. Anyone can get money and give it to anyone to slap shit on. Those cars are abundant on this forum, cars like Eric's/Dave's have a story and personality.

There's also the tendency to think what is familiar is also more special. Or to think that their own/friend's stories are more special... I am pretty sure that everyone on AZ feels like their car has a story or personality.

Yeah, I can see how that can stay with some people, but it borders on corny to me, maybe I'm a terrible cynic though. I do appreciate aspects of the car, I just wish people wouldn't assume someone is an idiot or hater just because they aren't "feeling it".

I'm all for everyone feeling a special attachment to their car, because, in the end, it's their car. It is rare, almost unthinkable to see a car like Eric's even to this day. It just sucks that people can't really appreciate the work done to the car because "It's not their taste"

There are things like jazz music which I don't have a preference for, but I can appreciate because there is a history, experienced skill, complexity, and on-the-spot thinking that goes into it. However, as prospero mentioned, if you put bags on a McLaren F1, then it would be taking away from the fact it's an Audi even though a lot of work would have went into it. Putting a corvette engine into an A4 would take a lot of work too lol. Doesn't mean it's the right work...

.. I think an LSx in an A4 would be pretty awesome actually.

I know a lot of people on here like bags, but IMHO they look so much better on old classic cars, not on modern Audi's. To me, bags with chrome rims on Audis look ghetto. Audi's are not meant to be put on bags, nor are they meant to have chrome rims. Again, this is just my opinion as I know a lot of you would disagree, but it's a forum, so I'm entitled to my opinion right? Ok, maybe not, flame on. On a side note I do appreciate the photography, nice shots.

yes its your opinion, but that car is just perfect, bags is just one of the better suspensions available out there, and chrome rims? i dont see no chrome rims, they are polished, and those wheels cost a lot more than what u think. that is just Euro look

Actually, if I recall correctly I think the wheels are chrome dipped. Correct me if I am wrong.
