Default I told you to keep them, but you didn't listen...

I suggested the S4 wheels for your summer rubber...

Default Yeah, but I more than doubled my money:)))

and besides, I would have LSOT money on the summer rims that I have now. In the end, I decided that I liked the look of the 9-spokes more for summer, even though they are more "common."

Default Awesome...they look best on a dark colored A6. Maybe the 5MM spacers up front will ...

help compensate for our Audi's massive understeer.
