New look

Post by pmj » Fri Feb 06, 2015 12:32 am

After having the wheels in my garage for the best part of two months I finally got round to getting them on last week, to say I am pleased with the look of the car now is an understatement, had a service at Basingstoke Audi and they were blown away with the car,

Thought you'd bought two for a moment! What's parked next to it - a Sepang A3 saloon?

Never noticed how short the boot is on the 3 till I just saw it next to your 4!!

Wheels look nice, needs a little lowering though if you ask me.

Looks quite smart, IMO.
Are they all over platinum grey metallic (paint code D7X), per chance?

Actually it's not that bad. I have driven worse. I found on the 18's there was a lot more roll on the body. It jus feels sharper in handling Not crashy at all

Got the wheels from a forum member. He got them from a company called CM Wheels.
