Yea, they have really nice concavity considering the specs. I have a set in the garage I'm storing for a buddy haha. Dunno why I assumed 20".

Here is a basic run down of what's going on. (message I sent to another member)


At the current moment not for sale. However, I've had a few things pop up and am having seconds though selling the car in general.

When installing the Rotor wheels I inspected all the WORKS wheels, and another wheel has a small crack, however the crack isn't causing any air to leak, but the tire was low. rotating the wheel I found a nail in the tire. Just bought these tires back in Sept.
So I need to wait till the 2 new work wheels come in and see what wheels need to be address. If i'm lucky , the 2 bent wheels are the same wheels that are cracked.

P.S. you are probably the 5th person to ask about the wheels, so to be fair I'd contact each person in order to see who wants them, if no one bites they'll go in the classifieds. (If I sell of course :D )

Yep I'm on full airlift, handles amazingly well and so comfortable at my drive height

[zooyorker]

A tiny little update. Blacked out part of the front lights and bought a new camera :-) Can't believe you guys don't get avants in the states, such a shame :-(

[cmd4]

Simply not fair……but gorgeous avant! all of you over there continuing to taunt us with your rs4 wagons…..

[d2a4]

thanks!

Yes, but they are heavier than Work, right? I love the Work, still hunting for a set here (bought a set HRE but still hunting for lighter wheels. If I could not find anything lighter then HRE will go on)

iirc I think I saw somewhere the WORKS are 27lbs? I will have to weight them when the new ones come in.

BBS FI-R (20x9= 17.46lbs), BBS FI (19x10.5= 19.8lbs), Advan RZ-DF (19x10= 19.4lbs) are some of the lightest wheels available. Obviously weight will slightly increase/decrease with size respectfully, but these from my research are the lightest. HREs actually tend to be on the heavier side. Here is a good thread of many different wheels being weighed from numerous manufactures. Pages of info.

[RS4POWER]

This looks phenomenal, bravo. Finally an Avus RS 4 that I can say I love.

I always felt it was my least fave color for the RS 4.

[Mops@Nemesis]

Put in an order for 19x9.5 Emotion CR for a b8 s4 yesterday. They weight 23.5. Another great option is the g25. They come in right at 20 in 19x10.

Beautiful! I gotta visit one day

By the way, about the quote you have in your signature about that Top Gear episode, Ben Collins (the Stig) wrote in his book that while he did that hot lap, he actually spun off the RS4 into the dirt. But they ended keeping that lap time anyway (probably due the reactions from the boys after hearing the lap time). If he didn't spin, the RS4 would have definitely beat the Merc, and probably be a lot closer to the M3.

Here's the excerpt:

Next I pushed the Audi to the brink, flat-footed it through the kink on to the back straight and reached a top speed of 145 into a fast, tightening right-hander.

Braking and turning from high speed tested the driver’s confidence as much as the essence of the machine. I went in flat, cogged down and braked lightly to prevent the ABS activating, then gradually increased the brake pressure. The ABS triggered as I reached for the apex at about 110, resulting in a deadening of the pedal. Then the electronics gave up, no longer caring to moderate the percentage changes of fluid pressure to slow each individual wheel. That sent all the braking to the least loaded wheel, the inside rear, locking it instantly as if someone had hooliganed the handbrake. It sent the car completely sideways.

The Polaroid moment that followed saw The Stig in a flat spin, exiting stage left off the circuit towards a gravel trap and tyre barrier. And it was only 10.30 in the morning ...

The gremlin in the system’s electronics had more to offer. I piled on the opposite lock, slammed the steering into the rack stop and applied 100 per cent brakes, scanning desperately for a solution to save the car either by swivelling it around or trying to accelerate away from the wall. At that critical moment the ignition switched itself off, taking with it the power steering and assisted brake. I had to push them both twice as hard to achieve the same effect, manhandling the controls like a gorilla at feeding time.

Scraping the tarmac ran my speed down another 40mph to a manageable 70 by the time I slid across the border of the gravel trap, missed the deep stuff next to the wall and brought the car to a stop on the grass. The engine and electronics were totally dead. Naughty car, but you had to laugh. These things happened.

I removed and replaced the key. She switched on and drove back to the start line as if nothing had happened – and still managed a time just 0.4 of a second slower than the Merc.

Here's the excerpt:

The lake behind my car is huge and it has a tiny island with a church in the middle of it. You can rent a boat and row out to it. And on the small hill to the left you also have an old castle.






Yeeeeesh regarding the spin out with the ignition switched off... wtf. Hope that never ever happens! :)
I remember he went off but not that it was that dramatic!
