Spice it up
 
I've had my car a year now, and want to do something to add some appeal to the car to keep me interested. I'd like to do some interior upgrades, specifically a 3 spoke sport steering wheel from an A4 sport package and '95 S6 type of bolstered seats (if they fit). I'd also like to do a +1 wheel upgrade to the wheels in the ebay link below, will those fit? I will be doing eibach springs for sure, but am more curious of any suggestions you guys might have on things to do, and where to get them from.

thx..<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/O-E-17-GUNMETAL-AUDI-RS4-RS6-A4-A6-A8-S4-WHEELS-RIMS_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ43957QQitemZ801254 2293QQrdZ1">ebay link to RS4 copy rims</a></li></ul>

I have plans of buying wheels from the same seller...
 
as soon as i get some cash...I am going to get the 17" 5 spoke gunmetal finish. Anyways, it seems like all previous buyers were happy, so i feel confident in the quality. However, the offset is 35mm... will that fit on my car, or will i need spacers?

you know, there are plenty of A4/S4 owners, who would sell their OEM wheels for cheap.
 
In case of rims on ebay you also will pay for tires. In addition OEM rims will fit, have better quality, then some ebay auction and they have Audi logo, etc.
When you will trash one of the OEM wheels, you can find plenty of replacements. I wonder, what you will do after one of your ebay wheels will crack.

Besides you will help somebody to unload his wheels.

Check Marketplace on this site or on audifans.com

Re: you know, there are planty of A4/S4 owners, who would sell their OEM wheels for cheap.
 
Sure, I know that I need tires but I appreciate you mentioning just in case you thought that I was planning on using my stock 16" tires on the new 17" rims :-)

So I get your point on replacing a messed up rim, I will agree with you it will be way easier getting a single factory replacement than finding out the place I got the knock-off's from and seeing if they will part out a single wheel.

But to stick up for copy wheels, I have bought 2 pairs of copies off of ebay (one set of AMG for my E320, and another for previous A4) and the quality was just fine, and I saved a bunch of money. I will check the marketplace though as I haven't looked there in many years.

thx
