    Thumbs up [PICS] Finally got new 19" wheels and now...

    ... I need a bigger drop like no other. Mo' money

    Thanks to "autumn" for getting me a great deal. Awesome person to deal with.

    I don't care what anyone says, these wheels look absolutely kickass in real life - the pictures don't do it justice (VMR's finish is amazing)

    Sorry for the LQ pics (taken with camera phone):





    Running on Bridgestone Potenza RE All-Seasons - and for reference, yes, this is on OEM sport suspension (the slightly lower one from the '05.5-'06 model run)

    Haha thanks, and yeah, def.

    I'm keeping tabs on your S-Line upgrade process.. I'm thinking of doing something similar in the future.

    Thanks, the ride is slightly rougher on 19's.. but then again, I'm coming from stock 17 -> 19. I can feel more bumps but it's not substantially different. I don't think there would be a big diff. in ride harshness between 18's and 19's (the previous owner of the wheels said the same thing).

    The only thing I would worry about would be the road conditions in your area.. if your roads suck, I would get 18's so you have some more tire to protect your rims.

    Nice wheels. Do you have more pictures of your car from the front? I'd like to see how the Votex front spoiler looks.

    ah my eyes...the wheel gap with those beautiful rims.

    Always been a fan of the RS4 reps both B6 and B7. I would love to go 19's in the summer. Would you happen to know the wheel weight and/or combined weight?

    So, which CO's are you going for?

    Those look great. I've been torn between the gunmetal or the hyper silver for my white car. I think I'm going to have to go with the hyper silver after seeing your pics.

    Thanks, if you have the TI package for the white, I think going gunmetal would be a no-brainer but if you have the chrome trim, the silver offsets it very nicely. Besides, I'm sure the brake dust will turn hyper silver --> gunmetal anyway

    What size are those tires? They look pretty stretched.

    nice car/setup...i think the B6 looks just as good if not better with those wheels. and ya lowering your car would set it off..btw since your leaning towards the Stasis SS, i have them and im very pleased, i do about 80-100 miles of driving per day and not once have they been uncomfortable.

    How would you compare them to stock OEM sport suspension?

    Not sure, I'll have to check tomm. (or autumn might be able to answer that for you), but they did look a bit stretched.

    Re: [PICS] Finally got new 19" wheels and now...

    I agree, the wheels look great. People claim they are played out but honestly they look a lot better than some of the wheels other A4 owners throw on their car.

    Being different is good to an extent, but there comes a point where some wheels/mods simply don't flow or match the car.

    I ordered them last March and waited almost 3 months before I got them.

    I 100% agree with b6onboost.

    hah, thanks captain obvious.
    and that's on the lower '05.5~'06 OEM sport suspension, too. imagine the wheel gap on non-sport or the newer sport suspension.

    delta - there's more shots of the front end here:
