Default Have any of you guys gone to 20's?
OEMPlus has some nice Euro 20's that have the same bolt circle, offset, and width as ours. 255/30-20 would have the same roll radius.

I'm just wondering is anyone here with 20's has any comments about the switch.

Default Re: I'm considering going 18'
The 19 look too skinny to my taste. The 18' will allow for better handling and a bit more aggressive driving.

Default Too frickin expensive for tires..or to replace the wheel
And very little in terms of options for tires. I am not happy with what I can get with 19" wheels now.

Default Re: I'm not surprised
there is such thing as balance and design intentions. After trying I am fairly convinced the RS was intended for the 18'.

Default nice. the '08+ A8 sport pack wheels would look even better, they are fully polished
