Default Abitos Wheels on a B5

For those interested in seeing how Audi's 16 inch Abitos wheels look on a B5, here's mine. I called around to a few dealers within 50 miles of my home looking for these as they were on sale for $49. The first person I got a hold of checked in a back room to find a brand new set that someone had ordered, but neglected to pick up.

They are 16X7 e42 mounted on... 205/55

I wish they were larger, but for $49 a piece I can't complain. I plan on getting lug caps, a few other things, and then selling the car.

Thanks guys. I'm enjoying it while I still have it. I'm about 90% I'm going to sell her this summer. Needs a bit of work that's been priced pretty steep by the dealer. I know it can be done for a lot cheaper, but the headache is becoming too much right now. I'm not in a rush to sell, and will price parts and work in the meantime.

I love parking next to a 2006+ car and thinking how my car looks as good if not better (aside from the headlights and semi-jeep status). I love the paint color too
