Personaly I do not like them, they look way to big for the car but its your car at the end of the day so you do what you feel is best.
 
They sit miles out the rear is so wrong.
On the plus side your plate is class!!
 
Do you think? I had the 19" set on there before these and they just looked small so i upgraded to 20" and lowered it 35/40 mm all round and im happy but still dont look at it and put a massive smile on my face just a smile lol

I just dont know what to do now haha, keep them or get rid?

As i do like them and it is different and stands out but am i 100% happy???? Hmmm,mmmm
 
looks too big for the car, i'd bet it tramlines like hell.

Any pics of it on the 19's? and did you try it on the 19's with the new drop?
 
Being totaly honest they drive alot better than the 19"s no tramlining or anything, just have to watch out for pot holes as the tyres are like elastic bands haaha,
Thats the thing the 19" looked tiny and the 20" dont look huge to me i would go bigger if i could lol and no sorry no pictures as they where only on there a couple off days as i was not happy with the look at all.

But cheers for all the comments guys
 
Wow... Looks like a hotwheels car...

Doesnt look right to me tho... Theres a video on youtube called audi s3 the white pearl i'm sure it is.... And he put 20" rotors on his and it looked so much better on that... I wonder what the difference is...? Cause i fell in love with them on that pic, but sadly not on this 1? :think:
 
Just had a look.... They 1's on his were 8.5j think thats what the clear difference is here

Haha, i dont know thats the problem i think theres just something that doesnt click, is it the wheel colour with the car? The car colour god knows, but it just doesnt give me the wow factor which im sure 20" wheels should?
 
Haha, well i will see if they grow on me and in the mean time see if anyone is interested in a deal or swap for them for something else as they are only a few days old.
 
my 0.02...The wheels outclass the car. The eyes look at the wheels first and the car just disappears. To put out a good looking car, the devil is in the details. Keep the wheels and dress the car and I think a smile will come to your face
 
I have 18s rotors on mine but have 3 x 19s and 3 x 20 genuine - I am selling mine as should you as you'll get good money for them! If anyone wants them let me know!

Don't suppose you are from Newport? Pictures looks familiar to Malpas Shell :think:
 
They're too far out, and an A3 needs air to pull off 20"s. In my opinion.
 
They do look massive, if you like them though then roll with it, modding is a personal thing.
 
Too big, too much hassle with the state of Britain's roads.

I've buckled a 16" in a pothole.

20" is too big and 16" is too small.

Like with everything somewhere in the middle is ideal.
 
Cheers guys a few mixed coments on them.

I do have a few more things to do with the car as ibeen looking at S3 kit so some side skirts to give it that lower look. In the flesh the car is sat really low the picture doesnt do it justice to behonest will have to get a better one as the rear wheel is tucked just under the arch.

And spot on audinutta thats newport shell haha.

Jord c everything has its price so if you are interested let me know could do a deal.
 
Love it anymore pictures? I think you need to drop it a bit more and it will be perfect. Rotors do look better on white cars though.
 
It's because that white ones lower. If this was lower you'd pull it off. Needs to be on air for practicality and being able to pull off the look.
 
Just get the 18" Black Edition wheels which look the same, it will a million times better.
 
Not a fan, biggest i would go on my S3 would be 19, but I'm a stinge and won't pay for the tyres, so 18 it is, spaced and lowered properly 18's compliment an A3/S3 really well. As a few others have said it looks like a hot wheels car!
 
imvho, 19s are too big, 20s are wwwaaayyy too big. The car is designed for certain proportions, and what you did is laugh in the face of good design and get comical clown wheels. Each to their own yada yada
 
Ye they look good all thos in the pics

well i just bought some 19" bbs ch wheels so see how theys go now haha.

So anyone interested in a week old set off 20"s let me know.

Nuff said

I know everyone has their own thing and everything, but it just looks like cheap tacky nonsense for people with zero class or taste to me. I pop it in the same basket as:
