Hello all,
I am building my first air'd project. Its a C5 A6 Avant and I am waiting for my complete bagyard setup to arrive (hopfully next week). So far I gathered most of the management and picked up 3 boxes full of goods today.

Goods

and complete control arm 12 piece kit to keep things tight.

Now planning the layout, and here is where I have first problem. I want to keep my cargo space stealth but with the size of the tank I got and the way that spacesaver pan is made on my car it will be hard to do. as you can see

Re: (Grig85)

OK so I found some wheels that I like very much at the moment

dont know what I will do with them yet, run them as is, banded, or coated. time will show. but I love the fact that they are 18" et44 and no faking adapters needed to run em, besides I havent seen another set of them on anything ever. 7.5" wide will sure give me freedom of steering but lack of tire stretch is not something I can be happy with... so how knows maybe I will add another inch to the inned side of the barrel. but for now I did my reaserch and best bang tire for buch is 205/40/18 Nankang AS-1. I know, I know that ist a sh[]t tire but with my camber I had nothing left of my falkens in a back in just a bit over a month period so I want to see how long much cheaper tire will last.

no clue dude, got them from a tire shop near work. shop deals winter wheels, they had 17s also but without holes holes and were plain ugly those look like OE so I am happy.
Few dropped me pm's on what they are and what they're off - I got no idea. I gave my dude the specs and he delivered. I'll get more if someone wants them I think it will be ultimate wheel if its banded to 8.5 or 9
