Rather you than me - those 20s are kerb-prone enough as it is, let alone with spacers on!!

And so the modding begins :)

I'm waiting on MRC to come back to me with news on the supercharger kit :)

Yeah, it'd pretty much invalidate any claim greater than a door handle failure :)

Ho Graham - Silas.
That's not going to be cheep, it was going to work out at around 14-16k for my b7. But my god will it be quick. the TTS charger is the one preferred for the B7 but their are others PES, I think the TTS pushed out around 600-625hp and the PES a safer 550hp.
warranty issues, me thinks you wont even get the door handles.
just as a side note, you still wont beat a Std GTR, but that's not why you bought an RS4 in the first place.

How does a spacer make a wheel more kerb prone?

As the wheels sit further out from the arch?

MTM has already spacers for rs4 B8.
I think they are 20mm each.
Stertmann Motorsport says its no good for your car though and as mentioned it might totally <beep> up warranty.
Guess less the spacer is less the stress on axles etc, maybe 10mm is ok.
Im totally sure the b8 and the c7 looks great with spacers though. :redrs4:
OT: Freakin love my b8 RS4 got one of the first ones in my country and done 37000km with it.
Now trading it in for the c7 rs6. :redrs4:
