Re: Anwer for ya...

I would avoid the camber change, unless it's only a bit, since you can have tread wear problems. My friends A6 had the camber brought in and had a tire blow out around a corner. The sway may fix the problem somewhat, be interesting to see cause thats an option for me for sure. Let me know what you find man.

Thank you, I bought them used on Audizine, people move wheels there all the time.

Hub rings are not necessary. They are custom made for Audi fitments. Only place on the web where I found pricing is VividRacing.com. This should be a good starting point.<ul><li><a href="http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/wheels-and-tires-dpe-c-4542_4864.html">VividRacing.com</a></li></ul>
