Need details on '03 2.7T Hi-perf Wheel/Tire combo (posted @A6 Forum by mistake)
I will replace the 17" wheels on my '03 2.7t. I ordered it with the Hi perf tire/wheel combo (not 5 spoke). What are the size details for those stock wheels? Anyone knows the details about those tires as well? Brand, size, etc? I'm debating between aftermarket 17" or 18", perhaps keeping the tires and just getting new wheels. Boy, nice car but such boring wheels. BTW, I'm a newbie at the aftermarket wheel stuff.

If they are the cross-spoke wheels, they may be 17x7.5 and probably have a 225/45-17 tire
Those wheels are the BBS wheel that is made just for the Audi.
You can always get another 17" wheel and put those tires on the new wheel. The tire will probably be a Dunlop SP Sport 9000, but I have also seen Michelin Pilot Sport and Even some Coninental Sport Contancts. All are pretty decent tires.
Of course, if you go with an 18" wheel, you'll need new tires. But, you may be able to sell the stock wheels to offset the cost of the new ones.
Hope that helps.
