So I have a wheel problem..... can't decide what wheels to buy. MORE INSIDE.
I just sold my stockers w/ tires to a guy for $550. I need to find a set of wheels for that price (without tires as I already have a set) because I honestly have no extra cash and have no way of getting any (poor college student without a job and no time). Right now the S4 is sitting in my garage at home on jack stands (I can't drive it anyway, I have another car I need to sell before I can drive the S4) so it's not SUPER urgent but I'd like to get everything situated within a few weeks.
So here's the deal... flame if you must... but I've been looking at these on ebay. They are 18x8.5 et30 and weigh the same as the stockers. I had the tires laying around that I got for free, so I would put those on (225/40/18) and basically be rolling on 18" rs4 reps for the same price as I was my stock wheels. What do you guys think... stupid? I know the offset will be out there, but with 225 tires they will be somewhat stretched and I think would be fine with my Stasis Tracksports fairly low and rolled fenders. Opinions? I was also concidering going with a 215 tire in front because I am afraid the front with a 8.5" wide wheel and et30 might be a bit too poked to run with 225 tires.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-Audi-RS4-Wheels-Rims-A4-A6-A8-S4-RS6-S6-Passat-2-7T_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ43958QQihZ009QQitemZ 190096981822QQrdZ1">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-Audi-RS4-Wheels-Rims-A4-A6-A8-S4-RS6-S6-Passat
