    20" Rims on the B6 S4...post Pix

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Is anyone rocking 20" rim on their B6 S4? Would they even fit our car/with/without a suspension upgrade? What about the ride quality? You know....as Audi guys go....QUALITY MATTERS

    thanks in advance

    I have a B6 A4 so it's the same body.




    I have some better pictures but they don't want to upload for some reason. I'll post them up in a bit hopefully.

    The wheels are 20x8.5 DPE R08 Variant S in flat black with a polished lip.

    Look in the B6 A4 forum, there are a lot more cars with 20's there. It's the new phenomenon

    Too big IMO. 19x9's or 18x9's look the best.

    Probably due to a weight reduction ... I really like the 20" LM's - IMO they look much better than in the smaller sizes

    I agree...
    20 inch LM's look so much better than the 19's.
    The rivets and the design of the centers make the wheels look smaller.

    Red Devil, your car looks sick!

    not a fan, of either. For some reason the LM's look better on a B5s to me.

    I think any wheel with a lip looks smaller than it actually is.

    Hey Shonobi, remember Tommy's (from Winner Audi) S5 with the 20" BBS CHs? They looked awesome.

    however proportion to body must be taken into account... you cant just slap huge wheels on a car and say 'oh dip thats fly...' on avants i think you get away with 19/20" wheels bc theres more body, where on a sedan 18" seems to be ideal and proportionate to the body... imo of course.

    Yes and no, I bought them used off another site and the person I bought them from had a Passat and it so happened that the offset and the width worked out. I do get some rubbing, but not enough for me to be overly concerned.

    Agreed. I see ghetto hoopties around here with what look like 22's, 23's, and maybe 24's and they look ridiculous - usually on a Caprice, Impala or something like that. Now on an SUV, 22's would look good.
