Default I got new shoes....

The URS4 wheels are on!<img src="http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee127/islingtonboy/S4Wheelsmounted1.jpg">

Shod with Falken FK-452s, 225 50 16. VERY quiet and a ride nice. I loved the A8 wheels but day in and day out I prefer the 16s. These are also very light at 18 lbs each, 4.5 lbs less unsprung weight per corner. The car goes faster and stops faster too, a nice bonus. Fortunately the A8 wheels will go to a good home. Jonathan..?

Avus are ET37 though.

Nice, but you should have aligned the yellow dot with the valve stem when mounted per Falken.
