New wheel recommendations..
2 Attachment(s)
Hi all,
I want a new look and i am debating what other wheels i should Do with, preferably 19's as thats whats on it right now. Any suggestions??? |
OEM stock wheels is what you should go with. Look at the wheel options that Audi had for the car. There will likely be something that you will like.

Plenty of 20" stock Audi wheels to choose from that look really good. I'd personally like to get a set of 21" Peelers. I still have stock wheels on the S8, but upgraded to a tire size that is normally used on the A8L W12, nice ride. Many many options out there, try to stick with stock Audi or a known forged wheel.
good luck. |
Whats the name of a nice forged wheel for audi's?
All options i find for the car are 18's or 19's, i think i want to go a bit bigger |

All options i find for the car are 18's or 19's, i think i want to go a bit bigger In the US, OE 20's appeared in 2007 on sport package D3s and W12's with a light face and tinted accents and 2008-2010 all polished. The 19" turbines were an option in the US from 2004-2007. You can't go wrong with the forged turbine 19's. OE wheel so won't be value subtract when you go to sell. I believe they are the lightest unsprung weight with OE wheels and also more ride comfort than 20's. I personally think they look great on D3's and to me look bigger than they are. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...d34c671625.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...5c9d2619e6.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...567166af1c.jpg |

There may be additional OE forged varieties but I know with certainty that both finish styles of seven double spoke 20's are forged and very light and the 19" turbines are also forged and even lighter. MP4.2+6.0 actually weighed the 20's and included the weight of the 19's in a older post from around 2010.

Good luck! |

Lots of good aftermarket OEM style wheels out there. I stayed with 19's this time because I wanted the ride more than the look. This is the first time I've ran a tire with more meat that a 35 series in a long time!

Those are some of the very few wheels I think look good on a D3 besides the factory turbines! Good choice!
