B7 RS4 + OEM Titanium Package wheels + MTM 10mm Spacers

B6/7 S4/RS4
#1

I bought a set of 4 MTM 10mm spacers last year but didn’t put them on. This week my summers went on the car (had the dealer do it along with a RoadForce balance), so I threw the spacers on at home last night…but just the rear wheels.

Anyone think I should put the other 10mm spacers on the front? I think the fronts are decent as they are personally. Might just sell the other set of 2 spacers.

Couple of cellphone pics (I have some great photos in my camera…however my damn MacBook hard drive died again (taking my photo editing software with it). I hate Apple hard drives. This is the 4th hard drive death I’ve had (3 in this macbook, and one in my iMac)

Before/After (first pic isn’t my car but rather a stock Avus RS4 with Ti)

Here’s another pic from today. As you can see the fronts are not bad stock.

The rears needed help though…way too tucked (my car last fall).

any shots from the front?

and thats what you get for using apple products lol

#3

shots from the front of the car from ground level?

I can get whatever.

I hate these tires. Toyo Proxes something. R?

They’re loud. They’re hard as rocks. The tread pattern creates an optical illusion that the tires are 6" wide.

Anyone want some Toyos? lol

#4

Rears look damn good now. How bout a pic of the front real close, looking down the side of the car.

#5

maybe a quarter shot from each side and a dead on shot? its tough to say without seeing it in person regardless.

and those tires do looky awkwardly thin

#6

I made HD video to show the before and after. I’ll get them loaded up.

#7

you need beefier tires there. they look like ice skates

#8

they’re 255. It’s just the vertical lines on the inside and outside appear to cut 30 mm off each side.

Here’s the rears before.

well you need to lower it then! lmk and ill get you some KW v3’s

it might be higher than your neighbors Land Rover

#10

I’d rather put 265.30.18 on it than lower it. DRC is just fine for me.

what you got in 265.30.18 summers?

#11

You have 18" wheels?

#12

?? i thought rs4’s were 19’s?

#13

They are, I know you know that lol…I’m asking him did he buy a set of 18" wheels but hasn’t shared with the group yet…that selfish bastid. ;D

#14

you never know with him thats why i asked, he might have bought the only rs4 that came with oem 18’s lol

#15

typo

OEM silvers for winter with 255.35.19 Dunlop Wintersport
OEM Ti Pkg for summer with hopefully 265.30.19 Michelin PS2 or SS or Conti DW

#16

here’s a quick vid of the left rear AFTER spacer installed. Forgive me for breathing like a fat person…not sure what was up there lol.

#17

very sexy… your car wasn’t bad either.

#18

^^ LOL

Lookin good 8)

Now we need some footage for the fronts

#19

here’s an overexposed pic of the car from the front so you can see the front wheels. I reckon they’ll poke a bit with 10mm spacers.

Any RS4 owners running spacers have a comment on that? I think ny07RS4 might…and I know Karsty has spacers of some sort but can’t remember if they’re 10 or what.

I think the fronts are fine like they are imo, but I’m also in the group that lower would look much better as well. What exactly is a “roadforce” alignment, is this different than regular alignment?
