Default Happy New Year! Some pics of RS4 reps on my D3...

Been awhile since I've posted. Hope everyone is enjoying their D3s.

Wheels are 18" RS4 reps with 235/50/18 Nokian WRs. Can't wait for the snow to test these babies out. On the performance side, these tires do not compare to the Rossos in the handling and road feel department. However, they live up to their purpose and I am very pleased with them .

Here are some pics (taken in December 2003):

Side view

Rear view - Offset is 30 on an 8" rim width so the wheels stick further out towards the fender. Abit more aggressive and makes up for the skinnier tires.

Difference in diameter b/w 18" and 19" rims.

Just logged 7600 miles in just under five months. I really think i need to trade with greenie.

They are a nice change. I'd like to see a set of 18" S8 wheels on an '04A8L too.

Default Those look great.

I had thrown the idea of getting them myself, but my plans for a replacement car at the end of 2 year lease are up in the air. In any case, I still think that the RS4 wheels are the most attractive on the A8L.
