kalv 0 Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Guys,As the title suggests, how many of you lot are running 18" alloys? If you are, what suspension setup and have you got and have you had to do any arch work to get them in? It will obviously effect the ride quality, but is the extra inch worth it?I want to get a set to show of my porsche brakes as they are currently hidden behind the TT alloys I got and seen some Audi TT Cup's in black (with polished lip) for about £650 with tyres.. and am tempted?

coxy 0 Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 i think 18s look too big personally i rekon your just better off getting a set of more open spoked wheels as yours are quite flat faced and cover the brakes. Link to post Share on other sites
kalv 0 Posted January 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 It's down to clearance - a set of 17" open spoke or multispoke are a touch cheaper but not by much and at the moment they just about clear the caliper (couple of mil spare) - I'm assuming 18" will help in that area?

coxy 0 Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 yeh but that makes the brakes look bigger cos they fill the rim more. its nowt to do with price my 16s were more expensive than a set of rs4 reps in 18! Link to post Share on other sites
