Default New to this club and looking for new wheels

I am out in PA. area around Valley forge.I see some TT in the area.I bought this past summer a 2001 Amulet red Quattro 225hp. roadster.It now has 34523 miles on it.I love the car.I have had some work done to it all at AWE in willow grove PA.
I am on the hunt for some 18's If anyone has some wheels looking to sell let me know.I am looking for the polished lip look.I see alot with staggered setup.I know since my TT is Quattro I can't stagger it will cause major issues.Any receomendations much appreciated.I am gonna try to get out tomorrow hopwfully better wheather then today.I want to take some good pics to post of TT in Valley Forge Park.
Work done to car All at AWE
Zimmerman rotors w/ mintek pads
stainless goodrich brake lines
Giac chip
Borla exhaust
K&N drop in filter (considering a ITG filter from AWE)
H&R/Bilstein sport race suspension setup
All VF mounts Pendulam pass. driver sides(I noticed a geat change with the pendulam mount)
Boost gauge

Window tint and I had a custom TT ring decal logo made for the wind screen at Sunsational window tint in Norristown PA. very cool not seen any others like it.

I know several here who would disagree with you on that.

Default As long as you keep the circuference the same all around you can stagger without a prob

Or you can down a fifth of Jack.. that makes me stagger.

Default I love the misinformation around here. You can stagger no problem >>>

However it will cause more understeer since you are adding grip to the already sticky rear. But as long as the front and rear are the same cirumference, its not a problem at all.

Default yes it does, however with tire pressure tweaks and sway bars it can be

totally mitigated. In fact even without a aftermarket sway bar I have been successful quite in autox with a stagger setup.

Default Very true, forgot to mention that. You have a Neuspeed 19mm right?

I bet that 25mm will help even more.

Default not yet, but it is on the list.

25mm may be too much without doing the front as well.
