Wheels arrived today and I fitted them this afternoon
Before....
After!
They don't stick out that much, not as bad as I thought they would do
I haven't noticed a major change of driving compared to the 245/40/17's which were on there (with regards to bumps, bad roads etc).
They do slighty rub against the Audi mud guards I fitted - looks like I might have to remove them.
Tyres now are 235/35/19
The top of the tyre doesn't hit the suspension, also the inner sidewall doesn't rub against the track rod.
I'm very happy with these
Comments?
Cheers
Mark |

I don't really want to lower this one as I did to my 80 Avant (when I had it), might have issues with the suspension etc rubbing against the tyres as well.
I will be having a major clear out of wheels, got far too many
4x Avus 16"
4x Bolerole's 17"
I also have a set of 16" A4 alloys - with winter tyres are on, so keeping them |

Nice They look very good! I think, and this is a personal opinion only that 18"s might look even better  |

The rear brakes look a bit tiny
Had to remove the mud guards and slighty 'modify' the inner plastic wheel arches
No more friction now
Never did like the smell of burning rubber  |

4 weeks and I'm still waiting for the Highout Coil Packs from 034 - they've been very sorry about the wait.
They ran out of connectors to make the pack and they have had a bit of a hard time getting restocked.
Guess I'll have to be a bit more patient
Also I've just purchased another car ( '04 Skoda Fabia vRS) so the S6 won't be used as much giving me more time to put everything right.
MAF was giving me trouble so I soaked the spare one I had in IPA, cleaned it up and shoved it on - so there's one less thing to do now.
Have to 'work' the caliper hand brake levers before the MOT as the hand brake isn't biting when slightly applied.
All good fun! |

AT LAST.....
After a 8 week wait, the High Output Coil Packs have turned up from 034
Fitting over the weekend - weather permitting (plus I have to mess around with the wifeys and brother-in-laws cars for the MOT ) |
