Default Got new wheels/tires. Finally moved to 18's.. Oh, also debaged and Revo'd.

These are heavy sets of RS6 Replicas on 225/40/18 General Exclaim tires. Moved up to 18's for the sake of good looks, I need to get used to the rougher ride..previous 17 inchers gave me a pretty plush ride. I removed the rear 20mm ECS spacers (don't need it with the 8.5 wide wheels and 30mm offset).

Also debaged the rear and will keep windows untinted. Im satisfied now with the "clean" and OEM look of the car. Next and final cosmetic mods will be 3.2 Valance and some audi center caps.

These are before and after pics:

Default ahh I love it so much!

your 17s were already one of the very very few 17" stances I loved to begin with, but now that you switched to my dream wheels the RS6s, your car is unbelievable to me, haha. Hows the REVO feel?

And yours are BIGGER! (We old guys like a plush ride.)

BTW, You can get Chinese OEM center caps on EBay. Takes a while for them to arrive, but they fit and look great.
