Default Happy Friday... The 99 Avant I still love got some new shoes yesterday...
Never thought I'd put new rims on an eight year old car (hey, still under 100K), but never thought I could love an eight year old car this much... It hasn't been in the shop for 15 months, so the car deserved it.

Replaced the 16 wine glass with 17 RS4 replicas... Got some Kumho ASX tires...

It looks ten years younger (so I guess in 2009 Audi will revert to the C5 design), looks like it added at least 40 HP, and drives great.

I came way too close to the edge with my old Nokian WRs, one had some metal near the sidewall exposed... I knew they were bad, but not that bad...

Getting an alignment on Saturday, a harsh winter here in Colorado with tons of street ruts, and bad wear on the outside edges of the old tires.

Need to get the Audi center caps on and update my sig...
