Got some new wheels installed last week

They're Work Schwert SC3 20x8.5" ET29 / 20x10.5" ET35. Also put some S6 mirrors on there. Need to adjust the rear camber a bit, but I'm very happy with the fitment.

I'd say your first wheel choice was the best to date. Personally I'm not feeling the stretch and poke look. Do you have any pics of the truck setup? I'm curious, didn't see any in this thread.

Besides mine, those are the nicest looking 20's on a big Audi.

Looks great! Work makes very high quality wheels. Had a set of Work Rezax II's back in the day and loved them. I can't believe you were able to fit a 20x10.5 ET35 on an A6. Any rubbing?

Thanks, guys I know these wheels aren't to everyone's taste, but I'm really happy with them. I wanted some lip and a machined face to contrast the darker color of the car- and these fit the bill perfectly.

My next items on the list are:
  • Find a matching black 2007+ rear map light to go with the front
  • Find (and install) a full S6 carbon interior
  • Pick up a flat-bottom wheel with controls/paddles
  • Install my Brabus-style puddle lights
  • Buy, color match and install an S-Line rear valence
  • Finally get a Dension 500 or VNS iPod adapter
  • Possibly do a 2009+ rear end conversion

Example of the Brabus-style puddle lights. I'll just wire them to the dome light circuit.
