Wheels for an S4 avant

Post by fade2grey » Thu Jul 29, 2004 9:23 am

What looks best on an S4 avant? RS4 wheels or RS6's? I'm guessing 18" is as large as you can go before you get ride & rubbing problems? Anyone running 19's? - what offset should I be looking for? Any particular size tyre to go with the wheels?

I've just thought, anyone got A\S8 wheels fitted? The new flat 19's

See my gallery for various pics of S4 Avant with various wheels. I particularly like the RS6 19" replicas. You can fit 235 tyres on these without problems. I have these for sale with new Pirelli's as well as some 18" BBS with new Pirelli's.

Hi , i've put a set of 19in RS6 reps on my 2000 S4 ,265's on the rear & 235 's on the front . It's got H&R coil overs that are set real low . No probs & look great.

How do 19" wheels affect the handling? I'll be quite a while before I go to H&R's or something similar

I have a set of 8x17 Oz super t wheels on my S4. Nice and light , no rubbing, even on H+Rs, car feels much lighter on its feet..!
Cheap too...?
