What do you think guys..? I am still unsure, it is early days but I can't make up mind whether the car looks good or cheap....? Appreciate your thoughts.

Looks good just needs a little drop.

Nervous to drop as I tow quite a lot so the rear wheels drop up into the wheel arch by a centimetre or so. When I get the boat on, I'll take a pic and get some advice on how much to drop.

They look ok but because so many of the "S-Line" cars have those these days it sort of detracts from the fact that this is an S4 rather than a 1.8T with some nice wheels. Just my opinion.

Looks good... brings the car a little more up to date imo

Looks very nice indeed - seems to go well with the colour too. I think 19" would have been too much.

What size tyres are you both running and do you know the offset?

Post by **tartan_rob** » Thu Jul 28, 2005 1:59 pm

I run 235/40/18 ZR Eagle F1's. Offset is 35.

Thought so. They look good...

I think they look great guys - for me, the choice was between these and the B6 S4 18's, and I just happened to find some B6's first.

Rob - Did you need spacers?

Post by **tartan_rob** » Thu Jul 28, 2005 6:49 pm

Clive - they went straight on and actually, even with the larger wheels and wider tyres, they had similiar clearance to the std 225/45/17. Next time I may try 245/35/18....thanks for your help and advice.

I have noticed that the speedo is out more at low speed, speedo shows 40 when GPS says 36/37 but, at 90mph ish, the speedo only reads 2mph higher...! Strange.
