It has been a long time since I have bought anything really neat for a car! I can’t wait to get them!

22lbs each, which is not bad for cheapish wheels. Wrapped in Yokohama ice guards.

Those should look great!

Still insanely jealous of your S3, how are you liking it so far?

Thanks man! I hope so. I have been stuck on that style of wheel since I bought CSL wheels for the E46.

I love it! It’s a really fun car, I never thought I would like it this much. It was almost a compromise car when I bought it (as silly as that sounds). I have a feeling I’m going to love it even more when the weather is bad. This will be the first winter in a long time that I will have a capable car for most snow conditions.

Are those EuroTek wheels? I had the same ones on my Mustang GT. Nice, inexpensive wheels!

Thanks! I’m unsure on the color now, I wanted silver but stock offset is only available in black. Not sure if I want to change the geometry even if it does not rub.

The HEMIWagon runs IceGuards in the winters. They are some serious tires. The S3 is much smaller and lighter, so they’re a fantastic match.

Hmm... They look so much better in silver, especially against blue.

I couldn’t get a straight answer from anyone as to weather or not the handling will be affected by changing the offset 20mm. So I went with the black, I figured that I would rather be sure on fitment as wheels/tires are not something that I want to have to return. If I put them on and the steering felt different I would want to ditch them immediately haha. Hopefully the black will look good too, the calipers are red so maybe that will make them pop a little. If not, at least they’re my winter set.

Yeah, black isn't bad for winter. My winter set is gunmetal.
