Faisal's RS4

Looks good! Normally Im an OEM man, but I really like the look of those wheels. I think you've got the colour, height and spacing spot on

Only change I'd make - loose the chav tinted front plate! It only makes you a target to be pulled, which then gives a copper who didn't get his leg over the night before a chance to be anal and look over the rest of the car

[FaisalJ]

Chav!? Moi!?

Oi!

I wish we didn't need a front plate at all. I might have to try one of those plate flipper jobbies

[Ian_C]

That's my point - you are not a chav!

Tbh, with the amount of cars you see driving around with no front plate, you'd almost be better off with no front plate rather than an illegal one!

Most of the C7 boys don't bother with a front plate.

Cool.

[FaisalJ]

Yeah, if it gets to that point (police officers wanting anal) i'll reconsider the plate...

I don't know if it's because the spokes of these rims go right to the edge, or because they're dark, or they fill the arches better, but the car looks lower to me now.

I know it's not, and don't know if the pics reflect the same, but looking at it in person it seems 10mm lower somehow!

It's the color mate. No contrast so it appears lower.

New wheels look ace. Interior is very tidy too!

[maars]

More new wheels?! About time too...

The Ispiris look superb. What made you choose the staggered setup? Have you tried the 10x20s on the front?

Thanks!

Like I said, a year between wheels isn't that bad is it? Although I'm looking for some new ones for the golf and TT...

I took advice from Jules that he didn't think the 20x10's will clear the front without going to a silly low offset. I did try them with the 20mm spacers (so effective ET25) and they hit the calipers but didn't seem a million miles off - another 5mm may do it.

If I really wanted to pursue the 20x10's up front I reckon I could've made them work. I fancied trying the staggered look though - I've had it on previous cars, and think it looks good! You see it mostly on RWD cars I know, but why not hey?

Just noticed these wheels, they look awesome mate!
