    Default Thinking about switching it up

    Kind of bored of my current wheel situation. Anyone have any recommendations for new wheels? I really like the USPs and since adding 10+15MM spacers F+R they look great, but are very boring.

    How about swaping front bumpers or my 15" winter wheels for the USP's?

    Yeah Saki they are. I wish I had some pictures of the car after being lowered and with the spacers, but unfortunately I don't.

    If there is no curb rash on these wheels, i'd be interested if you sell them.

    Honestly Evan they're not bad, but probably not up to your standards, lol. They've got some nicks and I believe one of them has minor rash maybe 3" long.

    I know Charles, it sucks being anal about things. But it wouldn't hurt to shoot me a ballpark price, I do love OEM accessories.

    Oh yeah & an EA shout-out to Charles for helping me over the phone via diagnosis'ing my brake upgrade. Rep for you sir.

    ^who?

    I'm going home Tuesday night. I'll put some pictures up of each individual wheel. If I had to guess the set is probably an 8/10. Not perfect, but no major rash or nicks.

    not a bad choice right here.


    personally, I'd keep them for later or as a winter setup or something, but then you wouldn't get the money from selling them.

    I've sort pf been liking the Ti package wheels from the A3. Those gunmetal 15-spoke wheels just look nice to me

    What I'm most likely doing this year is getting 19" V710 in Gunmetal with summer tires, then I will run the USPs in the winter. Problem is, the toyos I've got on the USPs are only 6K miles old.

    Same thing happend to me so I ended up getting some nice 18's for the winter (didnt want to sell my 800 tires for next to nothing)and a different set with summer tires for just the summer.

    If you need some summer tires I have two sets that you may like and save a few bucks.
    Brand new zero miles falken st115 215/35/19 I can let them go for 400 + shipping
    Goodyear eagle f1's 235/35/19 with 80-85% left but there is a little tear on one of the beads but its mounts up fine. I pad over 1k for them last summer and I can do 450+shipping. PM if your interested.

    You're dropped already right? I was going to say, suspension, a nice powdercoat to change things up, and I think you'll be very happy with the USPs.

    Yeah lowered and I've got spacers now. 15R 10F. I'm gonna try to lower the car a little bit more and see how it looks. I'm at about 25" all around.

    I've got the same wheels, I wish they were the 19" RS4 ones. I love how the car looks with those wheels, I just wish they were bigger.
