B8 S4 Modified Wheels & Suspension Gallery Thread

[SteveYem]

I have the same H&Rs and no complaints from me. And having all different kinds of coilovers there really isn't all that much difference from yours and the PSS9s.

That makes me feel better about it. Truth is that if I had something with adjustable damping like the PSS10's, I would likely just set it once and never touch it again.

Steve, got any ground to fender measurements post drop?

I did not get to it yet but I plan to take some measurements after work today. Will let you know ASAP.

EDIT: As the car currently sits shown in these photos, FTG measurements are 25-1/2"
front and 25-9/16" rear.

Off topic, but I still have yet to hear a sports diff review, considering just how emo that made you before

My neuroses have gotten the better of me. The difference I have felt is not commensurate with the hype I've seen. To be fair, though, I've been taking it easier than normal for the first couple hundred miles on the car, and I don't have the Eurocode sways+endlinks installed yet while I did have them installed on my std diff B8. Once I get the new car to the same modified state as the old one and I'm comparing apples to sport diff apples, I'll report back.

And to get back on topic, here she was during the day:

Having driven both sport-diff and non-sport-diff B8 S4s there will be little felt difference during normal-to-aggressive city driving. A non-sport-diff S4 with extensive suspension mods is going to handle way better than a stock S4 with the sports-diff.

Dark wheels in the winter is key I'm on the west coast of Newfoundland. Lots of snow here. Today my brother in law was backing his GMC Sierra out of a driveway and ended up going over the side, putting the back passenger wheel into the ditch. He didn't call for help. worked for hours getting it out. Would have been too embarrassing to be pulled out of the ditch by a Q7. Lol'd when I found out. Quattro FTW

Beautiful car!! Very nice

I noticed in your sig that you have "RED" supercharger badges....I am honestly colored blind and wondering, would you say our badges are truly RED or more orange/red? I want mine to match my Stoptech calipers and am just wondering?

[jazza08]

More!!!

Here are a couple more :) I still have a fair few changes to go with carbon etc but it looks nice for the moment, perhaps a bit too low for a daily though, I am probably going to wind the KWs up a little bit :(

[Jcam14]

^^^^ damn that looks sexy!!! Great job! Are you running spacers?

[Rodmar]

Question:

Will wheels with an ET35 fit with no problem and not need spacers? I think the answer is yes, but I've made the mistake before and wasted a lot of time in the process. Looking to order wheels soon and want everything ready.

[will13k7]

wow, that looks great, love the silver alcons with black wheels, what's the specs on the tires/wheels?

[jazza08]

Verde V99s, 20x9 ET32, 255/35/20. At this ride height they rub quite badly to be honest. I'm going to have to wind the suspension up a bit and probably invest in sway bars to reduce the body roll as much as possible.

[Ultrasporting]

so i am having a hard time picking rims for my 2014 ibis white (black optic) I like the Vmr 718 gun metal. that being said, can I go 265/30/19x9.5 all the away around on H&R sport springs?

Thanks man!

I'd say the badge is a true red and the stop techs are more orange. When I had the red wheels on that really made it more noticeable

I saw your post on Reddit.

Its Just Avery Grey, closely Resembles Suzuka Grey. When I went to the drawing board with this car I decided I wanted to keep it very close to an OEM look. My last car I slammed and did a Matte Vinyl on and it just stuck out way too much for me. and Thank you very much, My factory paint is Brilliant Black and I might be unwrapping my car this spring so I think the rims will compliment the car even more then!

[PhenomS4]

I saw your post on Reddit.

HAHA that's awesome!

[CaribGrunt]

Why unwrap? Doesn't sound cheap to wrap and then take off. Stick with the Avery grey, it's killer!

Dude that's badass. That's the color I want to wrap my b8. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you spend on the wrap?

[teenee3]

Mike,
I know this is a super old post, but I just joined the forum after purchasing a 2011 S4 about 4 weeks ago.. I have never modified anything on a car before, but I saw your pictures and love your wheels . Is there any way you could let me know exactly what rims those are, maybe where you got them, and if there are any spacers involved? Thanks, Andre

[dropshadow]

First internet sir?

Ah man that was funny
