    New shoes!

    Oh yes





    I was a little worried about the condition of my current tyres, and the fact that none of them matched. I decided to take the plunge and buy a new set of alloys as well.

    What you think? Apologies for the camera phone pictures.

    looking fantastic, those RS4's are a timeless design and I think really suit the S2...ahem not that i'm biased of course

      For the price, I couldn't go wrong. I do admit....they are replica ones, will I be lynched on here for not having the real thing?

      I was undecided between them an the RS6 (not the URS6) but I'm glad I chose these ones. On the trip back from Oldham it certainly turned a few heads, not bad for a K-reg Audi estate

      I've just seen your avatar and noticed them on yours too, they are such a classic shape, like you say. Yours looks good on them too

        cheers....mine are reps too, the oem offset is wrong for our cars, something like et20, mine are ET30 and just sit inside the arches, i think ET32-35 would be good and not scuff (as mine very ocasionally do).

            Thought there was something missing

            Im glad someone else is as mad as me - going for new tyres and getting a whole set of alloys to match

              I went for P-Zero's on the front and some cheapo's on the back to help me oversteer

                      Erm, i'll check I might have one of these, I know I have one just not sure what side, if someone wants it pm me and i'll check which side, if they just pay P&P on it they can have it.

                        I haven't found them separately but http://www.vagparts.com do the full set for about £80, all mine are a bit naff on closer inspection so I think I'll just replace them all.

                        Are there any tell-tale signs that someone has removed them? I dont see any obvious evidence of it ever having a set.

                        Thanks for all your comments everyone Sorry for taking so long to reply!

                          If anyone is interested in it I should have one of them spare and could have a look.
