Brennan's A4 B8 Progress Thread

[Brennan]

First day as an Audi driver and im loving it

First impressions, so smooth to drive, feels very much like my old 07 3-series, very executive and very expensive.

Trying to get to grips with the Audi MMI, i still have no idea what most of the buttons on the dash do

Not bad for a 25yr old lad

 

[Gazzaflem]

Nice mate love those wheels!

 

[Zafi]

You really are nervous about kerbing those rims, aren't you

Very nice purchase there Brennan. Most of the buttons are there to distract you whilst driving, thus ensuring a healthy supply of A4 rear end parts for the second hand market... Only joking. Enjoy the car, it's looking good.

Lovely in black! Hard to keep clean though!

 

[ShaneSun]

Lovely car. best of luck with it!

 

[Brennan]

Cheers guys

 

[Av4nt]

concave of the wheels makes it looks awesome i have to say

 

[Jay.Ing]

The wheels finish it off nicely mate! Are they your addition or did they come with the car? Not to sure about your reg plate, the fuzz may pick on you for that!

 

[RobbieWebs]

That's wheels look the danglies,very nice

 

[dieseldoos]

Agree with everyone, the wheels look great on your car!

 

[Brennan]

[d[-_-]b]

Thanks man, they're AVA Memphis

 

[d[-_-]b]

Cheers buddy, no probs at all - your car is stunning
They 19's or 20's - they look huge!

 

[Brennan]

Aw mate cheers means a lot, they are 19s

 

[Eigdoog]

Looks great! Get some rear tints in there and it will be 110% tip top!

I know how you feel to be a young audi driver

 

[d[-_-]b]

One last question Lool
Do you know what specs they are? I think they do them in either staggered fitment or 8.5 all around. Whatever your setup is looks bang on for the fitment.

 

[Brennan]

lol thanks man yea not sure whether or not to get light tint all round or dark rears.

Yeah I get a bit of jip on the road from others because I'm young lad in an Audi lol

 

[d[-_-]b]

If you get a min to answer my question about sizes that would be awesome Brennan.
Hopefully picking my B8 avant up this weekend and it's on the stock 18's atm ><
Your Ava's are some of the nicest I have seen on a a4 (and I've looked through a loooot of pics lol)
So my apologies for all the questions about them buddy!

 

[r15wne]

BLACK BEAUTY !!!
is the car lowered?
i tried some 19" rs4 on my b8 se the drive was horrible steering was too stiff, and the car just didnt look right too high up,
had to put back on to the standard 17", i put it down to not having the sline lowered suspension..
yours looks spot on..

haha cheers. They are 19x9.5" all round, not too sure on offsets as i havent had the wheels off the car yet.

Yeah they are nice wheels, only annoying thing is that ive seen quite a few pics of ones that are over here in NI with these very same wheels, mostly black A4s too.

Im looking to get a set winter wheels for when the bad weather comes, definitely not driving with these in the winter

thanks man yeah thing about my car is that its lowered 30-40mm on sport springs so thats why it doesnt look like a 4x4 with the 19s, would love to get coilovers but i seem to be bottoming out and scraping a lot as it is

 

[Eigdoog]

What model is it?

 

[Jamie-S]

Bit of jip from other drivers?

I've just turned 23 and have had my a4 3.0 tdi for nearly a year, never any problems.

Apart from being blocked in the car by police once because they are common for being stolen lol
