Show me your 18 inch wheel setups
I dont want to go with 19's on my S4.
The 18's drive to nice. I also drive on some bumpy
LA roads through Hollyweird to get to work. The
stock 18's aren't the best looking and the offset seems
to sit inside the fenders. Who has some good looking 18's?
(replicas, aftermarket or oem)
Thanks ahead of time for your post

I'm afraid that most who don't have the stock 18 or 19 " wheels have upgraded to 19" or 20" wheels and tires. This car just looks right with bigger wheels. I can't imagine that the LA area roads could be much worse than we encounter every day here in the east. Get 19s and lower the air pressure for a more compliant ride.

I live in LA. I just swapped out my aftermarket 18" wheels on my S5 (<a href="http://classifieds.audiworld.com/showproduct.php?product=7091">for sale here</a> if you're interested, but I don't think they'll work on an S4) for the stock 19" wheels. And honestly, I don't notice a dramatic difference in ride quality on the roads around town. YMMV.

My 18" wheels for snow tires
I posted pictures and sourcing information for the wheels I bought for me snow tires some time ago. See link below.

nasty stuff. All of the 18's you guys posted look really nice.
Keep them coming. Thanks

North, I would be checking the For Sale sections on the various Audi forums for a set of OE take-offs. I've seen quite a few.
FWIW, I picked up a real nice set of OE wheels on CraigsList for less than $400...I'll use them for my snow tires.
