B8 S4 on 20" V-spokes

Post by jaygemson » Wed Aug 13, 2014 10:02 pm

Long story short I managed to buckle my BBS CKs. Without the original wheels I had to replace the CKs quickly so I spoke to an old contact from my E46 M3 days who now runs CMWheels and next the next day I had a set of 20x8.5" ET35 V-spokes with 66.56mm centre bores - perfect. Thought they'd look bang on, they certainly do on the B8 RS4, but I'm not convinced they suit the S4. See for yourselves.

Thinking about dropping back to 19s and shifting these on, so if anyone's interested in these plus tyres drop me a PM.

Well, I wasn't expecting that! Seems everyone loves the V-spokes. It's been suggested that perhaps the matte grey finish is putting me off. Perhaps a gloss black or silver base colour may lift them a bit. I'll keep them for a while longer and see if I warm to them anyway, can't hurt.

The car is lowered as far as it can be on Ohlins coilovers without scraping it's belly everywhere - ground clearance is a bit a problem on these cars.

Looks perfect. Don't change a thing! Is it stage 2 mapped? If not do that and relax and enjoy.
