I have 225/35/18 at the mo, but the ride is bumpy and I don't like the fact that one pot hole could dent the rim, so I am going to get 225/40/18 soon

I think the third set looked the best fella. I personally hate the Audi/VW wheels but everyone has there own taste.

I think 45 will make the speedo wrong, but it would give a better ride, just depends if your happy putting up with the speedo being out...

how did you get audi rims on your car?
was it a costly thing to do?

Many thanks

btw think the car looks awsome with audi wheels on there, i think you should keep the audi badges on there
makes it stand out from other meganes!

Lol..... The new centre caps will be here within a week....

The wheels are 4stud, Auldi made some to fit one of there replicas I think... So was a different centre hole but same stud pattern.. Just got some spigot rings and went straight on.....

All in all about £300 it cost me :-)

I think I like the previous ones best, although the Audi ones do look quite good, I just feel you need an Audi, maybe VW to go with them...

Did you sell the KEI's if so how much did you get for them??

Yeah sold the Kie force 10's for £250

I got the wheels from someone I know that works at Auldi

They came available for a good price so sold the force 10's

Had so many good comments when I park up etc makes it all worth while :-)
