I think mine are 57.1 also. They are 5x112 yeah?

 

[Damian_S]

What colour are they atm?

 

[Damian_S]

They are silver with polished/cut faces aa they come standard, these have only been on the car for about 1500mikes or less

 

[Charlie Farley]

There's a set of genuine ronals on fleabay at present, a little bit on the steep side though.

 

[Damian_S]

Hi Rob, yes a few sets on ebay but I want them in anthracite so have to consider refurb cost on top.

All b7's are 5x112 pcd and 57.1 CB and with an offset of ET43 /45 by default.

finding a set at the right price is always a challenge these days as they are becoming sought after alloys

Indeed, also considering 19inch Le mans for an OE look

 

[Charlie Farley]

yes, always a nice choice in the right colour of course.

Again your knowledge proceeds you

Rob do you have any pictures of your bus when on dtm wheels please? I'm running same H&R springs as you, worried they will look small compared to my current wheels

 

[Charlie Farley]

indeed i do, give me a few mins to trawl back through my computer for a pic.

 

[Charlie Farley]

18" alloys are not small but once you've had 19" on, going down can tend to look smaller.

 

[Charlie Farley]

Blast , i'm on a new pc now and can't access the older pics at the moment.
I can show you this one though, not ronals but a very similar pattern I tried in 2015, 18" Rials similar style and spoke pattern but they do look small compared to 19" now.

Not sure i'd go back to 18" now.
I'm probably going to pickup from an earlier project and go with OE audi alloy again in 20" .
Same as these but maybe a ligher shade , I liked them when I first saw them and still think they are on of the best , well in 20" format.

 

[Damian_S]

The A8 20's do look good, there was a tidy set on ebay recently for £600 or best offer. I'm torn between adding bilstein b8's or dropping wheel size as the ride isn't great and I hate the butt clenching at every pothole or bump

 

[Damian_S]

Thanks for pics, 18's don't look so bad

If you still have the s-line dampers fitted , get them replaced with the bilsteins s, night& day change.

 

[ch1z64]

18" ones in black

 

[Damian_S]

Nice, you interested in a deal or just adding pic for information?

 

[ch1z64]

Just adding pic to let you see what they look like in black , very rare to get orginal Dtm"s these days

Sadly audi went and bypassed it in 19" , not sure why but they did...went from 18" in various offsets etc straight to 20" in two formats
