Purely in the name of research Silas :sekret:

Are those still ok with the (H&R ? ) lowering springs you fitted?

Been to view a few but non have made the grade yet - I'm almost certain the next one will now be a B8. Just haven't made the mind up fully on an RS4 or an RS5 facelift.

Sam, could have sworn you'd already bought an RS5? God, I'm losing the plot these days

Pretty sure their is no one who currenly does 8mm hubcentrics for the B8 platform. Your probably better off looking into a custom set.

Having just gone from a 2011 RS5 to a 2015 RS4 I would say the 4 is a far better drive. The 5 by comparison under steered hideously and felt like a big heavy car. Now that could be down to my old 5 being a 2011 pre face lift but I am not aware of any major changes to the set up that could explain such a big difference. Tyres may have had an impact as the 5 was on Bridgestones and the the 4 on Pirellis but again I doubt it. The only other difference was I that I made sure my 4 didnt have DRC and dynamic steering as that to me ruined the 5.
