they are the 5 spoke, The rims have Kumho Ecsta ASX tires 235/45 with at least 50% life left. 2 rims are clean and 2 have couple minor nics
let me kno if its a good deal,
also if they will rub and wat kind of power loss or mpg loss will i have compared to stock. thanks
I have the same with an Eibach Prokit setup. The 235's are REALLY stuffed in there, with a scary millimeter or two between the top/inside edge of the tire and some upper suspension piece, but so far no rubbing issues.
Ironically, no problems with speedo, according to GPS (as I had read others having when upgrading to larger diameter wheels.)
Oh yeah...check some threads in the wheel/tire forum under "Audi Sport center caps". Your going to want to buy the VW center caps from some Chicago dealer. They are only around $13 apiece, vs. the $25+tax apiece my local dealer wanted to charge.
They will look great man, I love mine, even with the slight loss of mileage, and decrease in acceleration (they ARE really heavy, but REALLY purdy). :beer:
No, actually, don't. Helium is so tiny the tires would go flat in half the time compared to regular air.
