Dr. Pomade Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 Berto, those look fucking great - very nice choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berto Posted January 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 Looks good....Center Caps???? The rear center caps were put in after the pics... The front dust cap doesn't allow for the front center cap to be installed so I painted the dust cap silver to minimize the clash. They do look like a tuff to clean! but I am going to get some low dust pads, fo sho. even though the center is darker than the lip, the pics don't show it. I wish the mesh was just a tad darker. Thanks for the props Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinner Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 looks great although it looks like there is more fender/tire gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboRust Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 sexy,, lemme know some feedback on the tires after you get some miles on them.. most have been impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirks5oh Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 yeah, those look pretty damn good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 I concur the new wheels look schweet...lowering will be the coup-de-grace, but you only need .5 to 1.0 inches off to make it work. Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye1647545503 Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 Looks good man From the looks of the pic you chould prob get away with a small spacer in the front (so the center cap will fit and a larger one in the rear to even it back out. Just a idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossle Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 Mounted a set of tires for a 951 Porsche guy last week on wheels just like those, sick wheels for sure. Gotta love the mesh wheels, a lil big for my taste, but still clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Second Gen Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 Your S4 looks nice with the BBS style rims. I park mine in the winter (December 1st) really hate the and wait till spring to dust her back off... Nice!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berto Posted January 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 How long have you had that car? New wheels look perfect man. Damn I guess I have had this thing since 02? I actually took it out today just to make sure the wheels are balanced well, which they aren't. Next time I will wait to get wheel/tire work at Derek's NTB These guys destroyed the lip on 3 of the wheels. Mike she's running great, this spring it will need to be tuned. Do you know how to tune microtech? If so, want to make some cash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
