You got pics for the rear stance? The reason I wanna stick with the 255 is for the WIDE stance look

Default I actually think its the quattro, the vibration is more like the tires are skidding on the pavement

its like any AWD when you turn a 4WD truck when its in 4 wheel drive, you cant turn hard, could it be just quattro

true, but wide stance, huge fenders and narrow tires looks silly

Perhaps. But it's not nearly as bad as your passengers asking what that rubbing noise is..

Default Im definetly getting the vibration now b/c of the snow storm we are getting:

Ive never owned an AWD car before but everyone ive talked to(people with audi's) said its normal, its quattro trying to grip and the tires are skidding on the asphalt, could it be the 255s in the fron that I have?
