Picked this up last saturday!
My second Audi S3, this one has had an MTM Remap, 18" replica alloys, Porsche 332mm front brake set up with 2 peice discs, and 308mm at the rear.
Private plate was included too, valued at £500!
Genuine alu mirrors, parking sensors, bluetooth kit.

Running 255bhp and 425nm of torque

Just looking for ideas on new wheels, seen some TT V6 18's that i fancy.
Dont want anything too expensive but then again i dont want replicas













Photoshop with TT V6 wheels - colour not quite right, look better on the silver one.

actually yeah thats a good idea! The 17" S3 wheels like on Joes look good so 18" ones would look even better

The S4 18's are 5x112 not 5x100 so they dont fit, they were my first choice! You could get them in reps but aparently theyre not made anymore.

The standard 17's are too small. brake clearance could be an issue!

The wheels on it now look good from a distance but up close they look cheap naff crap!
Definetly dont want A8 plug-hole wheels!!
