yeah car is gone, kept the wheels in case I get another Audi
some pics/details here: http://audirevolution.net/forum/index.php?topic=258.0
I really had to talk myself out of buying that car…thanks for bringing up the pains…
Beem, what is the weight of the wheel and tire combined?
That’s not bad. If you like them and they fit, fuck it. Get them. I just don’t like putting upmarket car oem style wheels on my downmarket car. Like there was a guy with a B7 S4 Avant with bentley wheela and I thought it was wrong looking.
Lots of the kids on AZ yelled “sick bro!” so what do I know
iirc, it was 42.5lbs per corner… the OZs on my S4 were 37.5lbs per corner but weren’t 11" wide lol
a 235/45/17 RS3 would work great on a standard body car, the 255/40/17 on there now is a bit too much

I know what you mean but I’d like these wheels if they were standard on a 1985 Yugo. I just like the look. Not really in it for the Lamborghini cool factor. But I do know where you’re coming from.
None of this really matters because I’m pretty sure Jnaut has left the country with my car. I’m thinking Mexico. I’ll send him a text tomorrow to see if he’s coming back.
It’s a B5, I don’t think it would make it all the way to mexico…well unless he shipped it, or pulled it with a V8 S4/RS4
Haha, for real though I hope everything works out and you get this thing back again…again
Hahahahahaha
Thanks. He does own a V8 RS4 so I’m guessing he pulled it to Mexico. I hope he was careful. :o
Jnaut texted me this morning. I know he was sick this passed weekend and he’s still under the weather. So he’s not in Mexico with my car.
I told him to stop hanging around hot, dirty, young girls but he doesn’t want to listen… Oh well. Let’s see what happens next week. One lost week is a tiny drop in the bucket compared to the eight months I’ve been waiting. 
Has it really been 8 months? Doesn’t seem that long. Anyway, if the car goes to Mexico, make sure you get some videos of pulls 
Yup, I dropped the car off at Velocity Factor on April 7th. Yes, Mexico runs on YouTube are a must.
I’ll do some friendly pulls with you Zero, let me know when you’re ready!
just not in your B7…please save us some dignity!
^^^ will do!
Absopooply.
Any decision on wheels?
Waiting on those Gallardo wheels. They’re, I think, 6 pounds lighter (each) than my stock Avus wheels so I feel pretty good about them.
I hope they turn out to be light enough for you. Did you buy OEM 19’s, rep 19’s or go with 18’s. 18’s would be the best choice IMO
18s. I was planning on keeping the heavier stock wheels so these will be good. They’ll look better and perform better.
Otherwise, next week should be my week! I still want to put on another 500 miles before going over 4000 RPM. So far I’ve bearly gone over 3000. Pretty soon I’ll be able to actually drive the car a little.
