Congrats and welcome to the forum!

I highly recommend checking out Wheel Experts. Those guys are quite knowledgeable about proper wheel/tire fitment and have a great selection of high-end wheels. They have a great gallery too, which will give you some possible ideas for your car. I've got a new set of wheels on order from them. They ship worldwide.

BTW, have you seen the pics of the white A5 with black wheels in this thread?

Oh, and please update your profile to reflect your location.

any suggestions on new wheels

I'm looking to get wheels for my new a5. I want to spend $4,000 or less. I'm looking for black with chrome lip. Any info would be great. Thank you in advance.

Lip isn't chrome, but it's a hot wheel. Work VS-XX

bigs33, I have merged the thread you started today with your previous one on the same topic that you posted just 3 days ago. In the future, please do not post duplicate threads. If you have additional information pertaining to the topic, simply post an update to the existing thread.

sorry, no problem.

Also, don't forget...the DPE and IForged deals are still available.

FYI the DPE costs went up a small amount on the retail on the 1st, so the discount cost is lightly higher.

Sizzle, or anyone else knows the offset of those wheels of the senner tuning black s5?

 

[afizzle87]

any work wheel would look sick with an aggressive offset and staggered the vs-xx, meister s1, varianza t1s, or rezax 2

I don't know the offsets of those particular VS-xx's, but the one's I have on order are +25/+25 which is a 3.8" lip in back and a 3" lip in front.

Mine are also 11" wide in the rear versus the pictured 10.5......

 

[michaecl]

um...that still doesnt resolve my confusion..OK, let's say..I wanna order wheels today, what do i tell them? I know stock wheels are +40.....so..+25 would be...more outward or...?

 

[sizzle]

The lower the offset, the more your wheels will be pushed out toward the fenders. Rear offset for our cars will range between 25 and 29, if you want an aggressive stance, depending on the manufacturer...

Here is a very nifty calculator that will allow you to enter different wheel sizes and offsets to see what will happen versus stock.....

I used the offset calculator and found that if the rear wheel is 10" wide, with +25 offset the inner clearance will reduce by 4MM, and outer edge will extend by 34 mm, isnt that too outward?
