All, I have been lurking around for a few weeks but have pulled the trigger on a new RS4 that I will take delivery of next week. Few questions first:

-What is a "must do" mod first? I have read about the airbox fix.
-Can I run 18" rims/tire set up from tirerack for winter?
-I got the Audi care with the car. When should I dump the break in oil?

Anything else I need to know?

Thanks!

Tough finding a wheel to clear the front brakes, I went with RS6 replicas. Had my oil changed at 6 months. Best mod I did was Tubi exhaust, Sounds great. Also just had it chipped by Unitronic

There is no air box fix - just a mod and there are many views on if one should do it

Change oil at about 2k miles

And yes you can run 18s for winter - though many including me run 19s and I live in CO but do not do mtn driving in the RS

Default congratulations and welcome

My first mod was the milltek catback. The exhaust note continues to put a grin on my face.
