I'm looking for sites or pics of a8's with different wheel and tire combinations. I have a reasonable amount of time but would like to start looking soon. Most likely try to go or 17" 18".

hAudi Folks!

You can also search the A8 Forum archives from a few months back for some pictures of another A8 with 18" BBS wheel (CH, I think) on a Ming blue A8. The name of the owner escapes me now, but he sold his A8 a couple of months ago.

The one with the BBS CH was an S8, wasn't it? Have the pic here somewhere.

You can also take a look at my A8 with 19" Work Rezax II wheels at the link below.

I have several pics of A8/S8's with different wheels, can put them on the same site when I find the time if anyone interrested.

You can also "try out" different wheels on the A8 at this site:

Even change color of the car! :-)

Have seen several sites like this, but can't find the URL's right now.
http://www.discounttiredirect.com/wheel-searchInteractive.html
has it, but not with the A8.

Notice how it becomes more important visually to lower the car a bit when you use bigger wheels. An A8 with 18" or bigger wheels and stock springs looks a bit "Allroad". An inch down normally does the trick, without poorer ride quality. Eibach has good springs that lowers only one inch. No need to change shocks if you don't want to.

Thanks for the pics your car looks great!

The other thing I noticed about the larger rims is the brakes look very small. I'll check out the springs as If I make the investment on the wheels/tires why not drop the car a little.
