Re: V spokes becoming too common?
you are right, so why are people bothered they are called V spokes if they look different?...I am not. Your driving an RS4 irrespective of the wheel design, so what's the biggy if an A1 (lovely as they are and little does the Wife know she'll be getting one) has the same??P_G wrote:They are not going to when they are 17's but are still classified as v-spokes on the configurator.carsarecool wrote:They look Nowt like the 20s on the RS.

Re: V spokes becoming too common?
It'd be interesting to see actually numbers of cars sold with vspokes vs rotors vs std 19's
I'm Not sure there'd be much in it between the three
I think it would be nice if Audi had designed a wheel unique to the rs4 and not put it on other cars
Admittedly, it's not cheap to design a wheel, but in comparison to their overall r&d budgets, it's pennies

Couldn't agree more. They did it for the RS6 & R8........Graeme4130 wrote:It'd be interesting to see actually numbers of cars sold with vspokes vs rotors vs std 19's

It's all torque talk.
Re: V spokes becoming too common?
The Avus design wheels have only ever been available on 'S' models and were never an option on lesser models.

Agreed, but I think peoples frustration lies in Audi's move away from such a policy....Ian_C wrote:The Avus design wheels have only ever been available on 'S' models and were never an option on lesser models.

Re: V spokes becoming too common?
V spokes are now available on the s4 so their not even exclusive to RS anymore
Re: V spokes becoming too common?
Yes - I spotted them on the config' only this afternoon! Initially wondered if they might be 20s (like are available as an option on the S5) but they appear to be 19s. Wheel and tyre size and price don't seem available yet?
