I'm running Falkens right now and I like 'em pretty good. Not as good cornering as the OEM Dunlop SP Sports though. If I get aftermarket wheels I'll be getting Hankooks for the summer.

Update: Insurance saw the car today and said payment was mailed today. about $1300 so i am going to use the wheel and tire that was not stolen along with the spare rims which has new tires as does the one on the car and im going to get two new tires for the 2 backup wheels i received when i bought the car. The only thing is the backaup wheels have some scrathes on the spokes (just Paint) and im going to paint em, but i was thinking i should chage them all up while im at it. Wanted to get peoples opinions on this???




Was thinking of painting my wheels gold since my car is black???

WAH?? Put some spares on their, take that 1300, save yourself another 200$ and then start shopping some deals and get all new rims and tires. You'll be happy, it will be like Christmas.

How about getting the B6 S4 wheels in 18's.

Glad things worked out. I'd have to say yes on gold. Trying to imagine it right now and as long as you keep it the same shade of gold as the picture above (not the light/yellow-ish) it would look nice/different.

From the look of it, the color should be close. Not 100% on this tho.
