Default Anyone have any pictures of A6s with 18 inch wheels?

I just recently got new black 18 inch black wheels for my silver 2002 audi a6. The tires I got are 235/40 R18

THey look kind of small on there, but I remember when I saw 19 inch wheels on the a6 they looked awkwardly big
Can I do anything to make them look bigger, perhaps lowering the suspension an inch?

I will post pics of my ride soon
thanks for any help!

also, are Talon tires any good? I got them for $99 each, seemed like a good deal to me

IDK about talon, but I had Cooper Zeon on a MK4 Jetta and they were awesome, I recommend them. [sm=smiley20.gif][sm=signs003.gif]

Those pics suck, but the car does look nice with those rims.
The only bad thing is that the front raises just a tad in my opnion, but not to bad.

I have been checking to see if anyone with the sport suspension is running the same size wheels. If I can I want to put the sport suspension on. Or just get an after market suspension on.

I believe my 2003 came with the sport suspension standard. Or so I read in one of the forum posts. I'm running 18" SSR rims about to be replaced with 18" RS4 replicas (the seven double-spoke kind). I wouldn't go any larger due to the risk of tire/wheel damage due to potholes, harsher ride, and steeper cost of rubber. They fill the wheel wells like the OEMs and look good.

BTW, after running my 18" Coopers for 19k miles and having two fail and thetwo frontwear out the inside tread on a 3000 trip this summer, I'm having Discount Tire replace them with Continentals. Stay away from Cooper cuppers. PS - I had the alignment done before the trip and checked afterwards and it is still in spec. DT blames the car and I blame the tire (as does one of their guys off the record).
