Makes it even worse if they actually have them available through parts in 19”.
The BE should have had them as standard.The offset on the standard wheels makes the small wheels look completely lost in the arches imo and always annoyed me in my PFL, so that’s why I used the spacers then and now. Just thought Audi might have improved them on that front but sadly not.

@The Challinor - Just not my thing
TBH I don't like the wing arms either ...
The 19" 5 V spoke alloys are the only 1's for me
(PS Not a bad colour either)
As always, just my opinion of course ...
Nice aren't they

I’ll grab a pic next time I’m up, they were just sitting there on allow wheel display rack. Not sure if they are fitted as 19’s on a different car or are purely a optional extra after delivery.
Which spacers did you go for then?

Hmmm maybe, I need to go and look again now as I looked at them and was like those rims are proper smart
Nice aren't they
SNAP!!
I love these wheels - I was still in two minds when I ordered, but wasn't once I had set eyes on them. I think the matt paint really set then apart, and I got the bonus of Audi-Sport decals as well...
Seems they fire the contis on to these alloys and fit the P-zeros on to the wing arms..... Superior alloys get the superior tyres........ Lol
20,000 in 10 months!I'm on 3600 after 7 and a half months lol
Good job you didn't get a S3.......then As you would skint for Xmas..... Lol

I’m just in the process of ordering my new S3 as I fancied a 5 door and mines 3 years old now.
Sort of had enough of 5 doors and I CBA use the boot most of the time so the back doors will get used a lot. Always had 3 doors and loved them but your right, they can be a nuisance.
Going for the mini Avant look SB with roof rails as for what I do the boot entry is more practical.
Had mine just over a month now, coming from the 3dr hatch this is a different league!

My 3dr was just annoying me having to get in and out to let people into the back, doubt I'd go back to a 3dr tbh.
Would've got a sport back myself but this just jumped out at me so here I am

I’m getting old now and take family out a lot ( no kids ) so I’ve come round to the same thinking.

@jassyo06 - At least its an Audi colour ...

Been a horrible week for us so thought I'd get outside in the fresh air and clear the head. Car was 1 year old yesterday so thought I'd give it a wee bath to get rid of all the grime from the roads around here.

Thanks mate. Time flies eh. She's done 9000 miles in that time. Thinking I should book in for the first service during the festive break.
It's a braw day right enough FS. Damn cold but when working away on the car it keeps you warm enough.
Ha ha I was waiting on the other house being mentioned. Naw, they're still working on it. Started June 2016 and I'm doubting they'll be in for Christmas. Ours is a similar size and took 21 weeks.

I knew one of you guys would mention it lol. Just surprised it wasn't @jassyo06. It's a farce mate honestly. The builders are total s**t but I think the future occupants are constantly interfering too. Made them take the gutters off and put brackets in line with each of the exposed trusses at the eaves!!
Phwoa! Stunning!Sparkling Ara Blue water..
