If you wanted diffrerent rims, and yours are in good shape. you could always buy some temporary cheap steel wheels, sell your wheels on ebay, then buy the rims you want.

 

id lower it first.....you can lower it for relatively cheap...lower it about 1.5" and I think it will make lots of difference.....none the less, that is one sweet ride and will only look better the more money you put into it..

 

I agree, I think black rims are too much black too, but look better than chrome. Maybe gun metal? I won't be buying new wheels until end of winter/spring, so I have some time to make up my mind.

 

I think that it already looks like it has a smaller gap than other stock audis, might just be me. I wouldnt say lowering is cheap, ended up costing me almost 800 (got all new struts and springs and had to pay 200 to get my front put on because it was near impossible).

 

pretty sure most benz's are also 5x112, you should try to sell the wheels on craigslist or somewhere if u dont like them. depending on the tires u could prob get like 500 maybe more. once u got that throw a little bit of your own money into wheels u like

 

for used wheels, craigs list ftw.

 

I like it.

Could be dropped a little lower, but looks good at current height. Its no 4x4 anyway.

 

Thanks! I was searching around the web the other day and found this website achtuning.com. They are located in Redmond, WA which is nearby where I live. They have a special on APR ECU upgrades till the end of this month for $499 and their special today is a free dv with the purchase of an ECU upgrade, so today I am going to go get my car chipped. I'm pretty excited. I was thinking that when I do finally purchase some new rims, I will keep these ones for snow tires because I have snow tires for these rims. Not that it snows much in Seattle, but my family lives east and it snows over there. The style of rims I had in mind are these shop.achtuning.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=895when I finally do buy some new rims. I was also thinking if I have the Audi sport suspension, I may be able to get away with just buying some different sport springs. Maybe 1.25" front, 1" rear. What you guys think?

Edit: Sorry about the link, not sure why it isn't working. If you copy and paste, it works.

 

ah just replied to your pm and mentioned achtuning, good to know you've already heard of them. too bad i dont still have my stock sport suspension sitting around or id hook you up. i with it. i have a pretty good hook up at discount tire and goodyear, so when youre ready for new rims/tires let me know and i'll see if i can swing anything for ya.
