I love the angle of the last shot. It really shows the cars' design.

The rims are really nice, too. I also like the tread showing on the sidewall. It makes it look tough.

I ordered these replika wheels for winter but I decided to keep them for summer, they look much better than Audi wheels.

Winter wheels accomplished today, 225/45/18 X-ice and gunmetal rims.

The installers thought the summer's would never fit in the car but they managed to squeeze them in, one behind the driver and two behind the passenger seat and one in the back. I was squeezed in, too. Luckily, it wasn't a long drive home. For the Toronto people, I already tested them out on a pothole on Keele Street...

Beautiful wheels GIJoe, summer or winter!

Just be aware that this sportscar turns incredibly quickly and sharply which can present a hazard negotiating narrow city streets with high curbs (ask me how I know, but thankfully already rectified).

Huey,

To keep these wheels looking great, my wife is not allowed to drive my car!

BTW, Did you move to the country to avoid those curbs in New England?

Yes, the bulk of my TTS driving is now country roads which makes the Boston cowpath streetscape more rare and daunting. Another case in point for dedicated winter rims/tires.

I bought Audi Center Caps, Lug Bolt Caps & Valve Stem caps from eBay just to finish it off










Bring on the snow!
