Default Dumb question

what good do the wheel liners actually do and how many of you guys have them installed?

unrelated question: if you put 8 inch wide rims on a 98 a4 would they rub when you turn the wheel? or do you need spacers or something?

Default increased airflow over the intercooler reduces heat soak recovery time

On the A4 it really only makes sense to install it on the driver's side where the IC is located.

Default 8 inch rims wont be a problem, if your lowered you might rub fenders...

I have S4 wheel liner, for 30 bucks its worth just knowing its there. Its also another thing I got to add to my mod list for my sig :-)
