Not planning on lowering it but the srpigns should settle back down a little bit having been jacked up all morning.

May go for the 30mm Eibach kit in the future tho

Set of RS4 brakes behind them would look quality.

I preferred the others. In the colour of the new ones would have looked even better I reckon.

looks nice. 30mm drop rear 10-20mm spacers and possibly a cupra r splitter could work. looks lush

I reckon you should get them refurbed in a really bright silver, would look a lot better in my opinion. Its such a nice car though, so jealous.

I prefer these new ones. First ones were just a bit fiddly and boring.

Harris- you do know these are RS4 wheels? so RS4 brakes should fit behind them

Don't mean to be a dissenting voice but grey wheels on a grey car don't work, plus I think RS4 wheels look wrong on every car I've seen them on.

Like the new wheels - these are the ones Dad has on his A4 Avant S Line Special Edition - his are more a "high power silver" finish though which I prefer. The 2 different greys of your wheels and paintwork don't quite sit right together imo.

Dont like the original wheels, look very dated. Most sets i have seen had corroded too. Too busy.


New ones are spot on. I saw a new A3 hatch in white with those wheels and it was drop dead gorgeous.
