Need Help/Opinions Wheels

[Daness373]

Looking at buying a set of wheels this week and found good prices on 2 sets just can't decide what to do. I can either get 18" RS4 DTM's or 19" Flik Justice. I have been looking at pictures and see that i want to get a 19" wheel, and would no doubt choose the DTM's if they were 19's but they are only 18's. When looking at pictures they just don't seem to look right or as good as the 19" wheels (when i see pics of the 18 DTM's). So my question's are these: Do pics make the 18" DTMs look small, and will they look good on my car even though i think i would prefer 19's, and my second question is what should i buy that will look the best on my car in your guys opinions. I have a feeling its going to be one sided towards the DTM's. Thanks guys

18" rs4 should look as big as many 19" wheels because of its lip design. I personally would go with the rs4 simply because it looks cleaner.

It's a choice you have to make for yourself. It's your car and you're the one that's gonna be lookin at it on a daily. That being said...I like the DTM's. They look good on these cars. I've got 18in 131 RS4's and people always ask if they are 19's. The flik's are nice too, but 19's..tires get expenses in 19 inch land.

I was a little concerned if I had made the right choice too, but after they were mounted and the c/o's went on... I felt much, much better. Lately I've been having some rubbing issues under hard cornering (mostly up front, and sometimes in the back), but I think it's b/c of the 235's and that the c/o's settled a little since install. I might have to raise it an 1" or so... I know a sway kit will help a bunch, which should be going on soon. Bottom line, I think it'd be worse with 19's in addition to the extra cost and rotational mass. Don't get me wrong: 19's look HAWT, but for DD they'd drive me nuts

I haven't taken any pics in a while, but I will tomorrow when I get her washed up I'll snao a few. DTM's FTMFW!!!

I just snapped these last night with my phone, and they came out surprising good. I couldn't get a real good side shot though, as the black (car color) blends in with the tires making it difficult to distinguish tire size and wheel gap. Anyways, hope this helps...









IMHO, 18" DTM's are the perfect size for the B5; not too big, not too small. But if you need more convincing, you should check out http://www.s4wheelgallery.com if you haven't already done so . GL!
