Wheels Swapped

Post by super7 » Wed Jun 21, 2023 8:03 pm

I changed my wheels out due to a puncture… also my 21”s had a couple of buckles I needed to get sorted.

I think I prefer the look of the 21s but the ride on the 20s with 35 profile is so much better.

I think adding spacers to the 20s and perhaps making them lighter may make them look better. I’m not sure the matt black works and maybe is a bit too dark.

Asking friends it’s been 50/50 on which they’d prefer. Wondering if a smoked grey would suit better?

Stick with the 21's, No RS6 should be shod with 20's, too many around these days to stand out in the crowd

I’d agree, I was supprised how much of a visual difference 1” made. Gotta say tho… the ride is a lot better on the 20s 🤦🏻‍♂️.

Dilemma

I can imagine the ride is better on 20's, maybe a lighter colour would make them stand out a bit more
