In regards to rims I found 4 17 inch with excellent tires

not after market.

Why should someone else"stay away" because of your spending habbits? Its amazing how many people spend so much of their money on their cars here and barely have enough left over for food or to do anything else in life.
I have enough to eat. Funny I don't remember saying anything about starving. I just don't have enough money for the 034 plug and play standalone, motor build, big *** turbo, and the 250 shot I would like to have by spring.You wouldn't understand with your weak *** mod list. The people I hang out with have some of the fastest cars on the street, one of my friends has the fastest street evo ever built (check out performanceautowerks.com that right AMS isn't the ones to have built the best), most of the people I hang out with have 700+ hp cars and I feel a little left out. From your mod list it looks like I spent more on my car in the lat 2 months than you have since you bought it, it just gets tough revamping a house and spending money on a car at the same time. Maybe you should try some motivational classes to find the energy to work a couple of jobs and be a father save for the futhure, build your dream house and dream car all at the same time. I would bet I put more money into my housethis lastyear than you made last year BOY.

woah.. didnt think youd take it that personally... You know, lack of a nutritious diet can cause irritability... Here ya go feisty one... Something youre used to perhaps?

Your friends sound like really amazing people. Maybe I'll get the privelage to meet them someday... I can only hope.
You have no idea what I have going on in my life financially, so maybe you shouldnt make eronious ignorant statements. Learn how to deal with the sarcasm and take a joke!

I deleted your post because you were discounting legitimate help lended by myself and an other knowledgable member for no reason other than to sound like a know it all. Theres no reason to knock advice that is correct and helpful.

Am I?

Re: side bar- i love ramen noodles, and theyre even better when you save money by not cooking them.. Much better uncooked smashed up in a bowland seasoned imo!

on subject- I wouldnt say they are unreliable either, but for anyone concerned about problems arising, and they sometimes do, investing in VAG COM is the best advice I could ever give for that. www.ross-tech.com Can save you hundreds if not thousands of dollars in diagnosing.

Getting back to the subject I would say Audis are reliable, but they got a bad name for broken timing belts. Proper maintnence makes a huge difference.

they got a bad name
Especially back in the day when some of the 5000 S's had a sticking throtle cable that caused a run away car. It made Reader's Diagest, the news, and more. They lost a lot of business from that and it dented their reputation for years.Then, the timing belt tensioner thing. Looks like they are soon due for another serious mistake, maybe in the B8 models.
