    I really like the second one, but that's just my opinion. I think they all look good with the exception of the last one. However, I still ride on stock wheels that have 20k miles of brake dust coated on

    No prob on the threadjack.

    I am stuck on the 1st and the 2nd, in their respectable colors. The first is a concave design also, whcih makes me want them more. They will most likely be 19x8.5 all around, with 245-35-19 wrapped on them.

    Damn decisions!

    225/40/18 is the size on my old suby. if jamey gets on here and posts i think the receipt from discount is still in the glove box, but i wanna say they were around 750ish out the door (installed/road hazard/etc)

    so i would assume 235/40/18s would run you closer to 800ish


    and those were the BFG Gforce KDW's


    edit: discount tire

    i realize they aren't the best tires in the world, but they are pretty decent for your purposes anyways.

    I paid 480 for all 4 of my 18" tires and included a 4wheel alighnment at Kauffman tire.
    Corsa 2233 A-semetric tires 225/40ZR18 tread ware 420 AAA.
    I have to agree with UpSideDownDesi the Last wheel type would look incredibaly hot on your Audi. Dished wheel look awsome on Audi's

    ^^^I will check tire rack to see how they look on the A4. thanks!

    Now my frugal side is biting me! I may just buy some sticky tires for the OEM wheel and keep my $, lol.

    Who does good wheel repair?

    Its probably irrellevant but one of my clients has an RS4 and man those wheels are a pain in the Ass to clean. But they do look sick and size '19 is a plus.

    The RS4 itself is an amazing machine! If he ever hints at selling them, ask him to donate them to me, lol!

    I sent you a PM:coolugh:

    i say the rs4 in hypersilver. it'll be alot nicer contrast than gunmetal would be bc of the lowers being unpainted. gunmental would blend too much IMO. I really like the LM's too, mesh wheels look great on audis. the rs6 could be nice too, but they are the most stockish looking wheel of those listed

    That's what I had been thinking also. The GM is nice, but even with the painted lowers, no lip on dark wheels makes me iffy. The RS4 18"/19" is on my hit list. They are the cheapest and simplest. They will turn just enough heads, lol.

    too bad you're not 5x100 bolt pattern then you could try mine to see if you liked the look of the hypersilver in 18's

    congrats on the new ride, i came very close to getting one of those or a used S4... what year is it? keep an eye on the turbo, the turbo inlet, the recirc and just stuff in that general area, there were some years where stuff was made with thin plastic that shouldn't have.

    oh, and RS4 gunmetal ;)

    BBS LM only. Nothing else is correct w/ those huge-o german fenders :)

    Big fenders require big lips and or GTR face.

    It's a 2002 A4, the year with not too many issues. The KO3 goes a long way on these car. The only scary issue is sludge in the block if you cold start it, or go over the oil change interval.

    Hmmm, they have a bit of rash on them from the previous owner, and a little from an incident this weekend with people who dont know how to use their GD mirrors to change lanes, forcing people into curbs. Freaking tards:mad:

    .....but we can deal, lol!

    I hear you on that! I posted that pic and it made me more confused! I want to fill them out as much as possible w/o rubbing or rolling.

    Also, I want my headliner and pillars color matched with the rest of the black interior.....you can help?
