What is your wheel and tire setup?

[GrapeBandit]

205's are so skinny though. I dont even like the fact that im on 215's.

yea but stock tire size is a 205/55/16 so technically they are the correct width for the car based on Audi's original design.

true, but I drive harder than what "Audi's original design" for a b5 a4 with a measly 150hp was intended for. lol

I can appreciate that definitely. Unfortunately you may have to raise the car slightly then. God I just died inside a little saying that lol

[adam044]

Think I may go with white when I redo my wheels. Still undecided.

understandable, but unfortunately, im only rocking a k04 rignt now

[rodgertherabit]

Not the most popular but I cant get enough. Gonna set up to 1.5in lips when I can afford it, but for now they fit flush and actually dont look that small in person.

Turbo upgrade same as s4?

[PatimusPrime]

Yeah, I was a little confused by that as well, since I thought the A4 and S4 had the same K04 turbo. It's just what the previous owner told me when I purchased the car. I need to get a copy of all the mod invoices.

[ray4624]

both cars come with a ko3 not ko4...granted an s4 has 2

^the car: i like
^the wheels: i like
^those wheels on that car: i do not like

i think its the white that throws it off for me. polished centers with black hardware would look better IMO. any color but the white man.

[Sumo337]

Well, sorry. Bought the car with the wheels on it.

[GrapeBandit]

Stock 15'' "Daisy" wheels with mismatched 205 tires. Just bought my 17'' B5 S4 Avus wheels. Have to get tires, then they go on. Any recommendations for 225/45/17 All Season tires?

To this day, flat fives are one of my favorite sets of wheels for the b5

[Koldham]

I found a set of 5 local on craigslist. they need to be repainted but they were priced right. do they take 10mm spacers? the back of the rim reads et45.

Are your fenders rolled at all? I want 18x9 with 255's. What size tires are you using?

[Concker]

Sorry for the late reply.
Front fenders are rolled so the lip is flush with the fender, aswell as pushed out slightly.
Tires are 225/40-r18

I have been thinking of getting some 245/35 tires for my BBS CHs.

They currently have 245/40s.

Have any pictures and specs of your ch's?

[coolgraymemo]

I have them for sale. They were on my S4 previously.
18x8.5, et35
I would take advantage of having the tires off to repair some of the curbing.
