Damn glad to see someone else with 22in RS4's. Looks great, i have been on the fence about ordering an S8 for a few months now. I see you have it lowered any issues with suspension?

Looks very nice. Is it an '07 S8 with '08 A8 sport 20" wheels?

Default Where can you get the 22" RS4 wheels, I like!

I'm looking for wheels, and have been debating 20" 21" or 22", I feel 21" wheels might be a good compromise for looks and ride but are impossible to find (tires also). The 22's on your car look great and I would love to know a source for purchase.

thanks

I got my wheels from another vendor over a year ago but I am pretty sure these are the same. Wow these are less than half what I paid. IMO the ride quality I think it is really smooth(granted I live in Texas). Of course not as smooth as stock 19's were but I like the fact that I feel the road a little bit.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/22-AUDI-A8-S8-WHEELS-RIMS-RS4-STYLE-5X112-22-X-9-5_W0QQitemZ150246281027QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item150 246281027&amp;">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/22-AUDI-A8-S8-WHEELS-RIMS-RS4-STYLE-5X112-22-X-9-5_W0QQi

Default 285/25/22 seems to be the closest to match to the diam/circ of 275/35/20 (OEM 20s)

You would bend those wheels in a minute on our roads.
I bet 19x8 reps on my a4. Not very noticeable, but not round anymore.
You would need to slam your car just so it didn't look like "ghetto"<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR4&url=%2Ftires%2FCompare1.jsp%3Fwidth%3D 285%2F%26amp%3Bratio%3D25%26amp%3Bdiameter%3D22%26 amp%3BstartIndex%3D0%26amp%3Bsearch%3Dtrue%26amp%3 Bpagelen%3D20%26amp%3Bpagenum%3D1%26amp%3Bpagemark %3D1%26am

FWIW - The 22" is not an OEM wheel. 21" is the biggest available from Audi
