Winter Wheels

Nice. They should look good come winter.
Dimensionally they should fit (I got the 42mm offset since it's closer to OEM) but I haven't pulled off a summer to make sure they clear the calipers yet as Huey mentioned. I stored them before I bought my floor jack to do my own changeovers.
If you end up pulling one off and trying it let me know if I need to get a spacer to clear the caliper.
Thanks.

The shop was confident that I'd be fine on the TT - I'm not sure if the brakes are different on the TTS. They had 19" gunmetal in stock so we did a comparison in the in the parking lot. I saw the machined ones, you chose, in the showroom - they're nice!

The TTS has bigger brake calipers than the TT, especially in front.
Those wheels are very nice indeed! It looks like you have the 18" bright silver paint on the front. Correct?
btw: my 18" Rial DH Winter rims have a positive offset of 35 (vs. 52 for OEM). Again, I wouldn't necessarily recommend deviating from/to far from OEM, but they do work just fine.

The silver wheels are the Audi sport 19" though they do look smaller in the picture for some reason !
Like Iain, I ordered 18" 42 mm offset.

Thanks again. I was also looking at the platinum satin finish which I was told is a bit lighter than anthracite. Glad I went with anthracite, I believe it matches the Daytona grey pretty well.
