Default Wheels

i bought my car with 18" Konig wheels, with Falken 451 tires. i need new tires and the guy i bought the car from let brake dust sit on there so long, it has permanetly ruined my wheels. it also looks like the paint is chipping. is there anyting i could do to salvage my wheels. if not could i put 19" wheels on there with a lowered suspension. any response would be appreciated.
Thanks Brunoaudi

Default get 19" spinnarz

dude 19" wheels really have no place on a b5... sell it and buy a b6 to get as much alloy on there possible.

Default Spinners are mad phat yo!

They look hawt on the A4. Make it look like an Accord yo.


OK, I am a stock wheel guy. Always have been. Had widened rally wheels on my Z, have late modle 17's on my A4. I still think S4 wheels are the best looking wheels on an A4 evar.

I suggest you have your current wheels powdercoated a dark grey/black color.

Default I'd buy some stock wheels but even for me they are overpriced

and that makes about as much sense as spinnarz on an A4. Besides I like my italian shoes... my alessios were italian, my MiM's are italian... meh... I guess I'm an italian shoe kinda guy.

Default for the record he didnt ask Frog or Joey...

He asked the entire forum... and end the end i belive he got the best answer. Powdercoat the rims black if there is brake dust "stuck" to his wheels. Where was your bit of advice? Once again just tryin to cause problems.
