Still looks awesome. Those wheels really suit it.
Just the wheels I'm looking for ! Haha

Hard to find a decent set though :-( For reasonable money anyway. Found loads with cracks and welds, or £1500 for a decent set ! :-(

Wonder how much they are new from the dealer. They used to be about 700 quid each. Maybe there's a discount available.

Looks awesome. Those wheels are great. Good stance, too. No rubbing?

She's still looking very nice Dunc.
The PS4S has a slightly thicker sidewall than the Goodyear, doesn't it?
Is it enough make a difference to clearances for you?

I actually went for a 35 sidewall this time instead of 30 cause the roads are w@nk, yeah, I got some rubbing now. Going to have to raise it about 10mm all round when I get chance.
Thankfully the wife is now working from home until all this saftness calms down, so it won't be used apart from going up to Grizz and back next week.

Very tidy looking Daytona, that.

Is it just me, or does the latest RS4 look bigger than the C5 RS6...!?

Common problem as it seems that the later models have all expended. I bought my A4 TQ in 2000. It seemed like a solid mid size car against all the competition 20 years ago. Now, if I park next to an A3, it looks small. Equally, I was in a hotel car park last week and the RS6 looked very much on a par with all the other cars for size, whereas at home against the RS4 it looks huge.

They're custom made forgestar cf10.

Saying that, they may be for sale later this year depending on how the <beep> storm goes. Not sure of I'll sell them with the car or separately yet.

In fairness, if Dave (HYFR) bought it he could have what he wanted, sorry Mark. I've still got the original wheels, headlights, roof bars, rns-d and probably other stuff too.
