Non Standard Wheels?

[crashburnfly]

Anyone fitted any alternative wheels other than standard fitment to an Allroad? My one needs new tyres (around £500 in UK for Allroad Pirellis) and I see co's on Ebay doing 17" tyre/wheel combo's for Audis A6 for £400. They wont have Pirelli Allroad tyres on but ... I get new wheels and tyres.

Any feedback or comments?

You do not have to refit the original allroad tyres. Any tyre will do. Most alloads are never or seldon used offroad. Just make sure that the tyre dimension on the outside is the same. So 1 revolution makes exact the same distance otherwise your navigation sysytem which is conected via your abs sensors gets the wrong information. Furthermore make sure all 4 tyres are the same (otherwise the thorson differential will try to conterbalance)

Try Wheelmania in birmingham , ask for wayne, tell him you know the guy from Liverpool (steve) he will look after you, I just got Jade R 19" with tyres 255/40/19 for 900 plus vat, they look amazing.
