His race jack is the coolest think. I may have to invest in one for the future.

B.D., What type of jack do you use? I need a new one.

Default Here's a couple pics, care of Boston Driver, of the 17s in action after last nights install.

Not that I'm biased or anything, but right after this pic was taken Henry and I pulled into a Golf Range and parked there was a B6 A4 1.8T non sport but with the 17" 5 spoke rims. When I look at that stock car versus the changes I have made in the last 8 months to my previously stock 3.0 I am floored by how much cooler my car looks now. =DDDDDDD

I'll have some beauty pics posted up over the weekend once I finish the roll of film and get them developed.

I know, I know... I should stop spending money on mods, actually grills for that matter, and buy myself a digital camera since my wife hogs ours for work related stuff.

Default I got one of these...

on April/Verdegrrl's recommendation. It is awesome, and makes wheel changes for the seasons much faster (and safer).

A bit expensive, but a very nice jack to have at home. Four pumps and your wheel is off the ground. Twist the handle and your car is down.<ul><li><a href="http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=6970&amp;productId=20022192 4&amp;R=200221924">Torin Aluminum Race Jack</a></li></ul>

Default The pics do not do your car justice...<edited>

It looks VERY nice! For once, you caught me with my car looking terrible...dirty dirty dirty!!!

Funny how many Audis there were in the lot at the driving range.

There was the Dolphin 1.8T sport that A4AdMan mentioned, a silver A6 2.7T Sport with BBS wheels, that ugly orange color 2005 A6 (C6) 3.2 with the sport package, as well as a TT that showed up later.

Now, the big question is, how did you stash your 16's???
