I promise the members of vortex, THIS IS MY LAST SET OF WHEELS! If anyone ever sees me talking about getting new wheels or trying to sell these, someone give me a virtual beat down.

I just picked these up tonight and I'll put them on my car tomorrow morning.

Man, look at that reflection!


These wheels were on my friends TT for 4,000 miles... the car was never driven in the rain. It is actually barely ever driven. As you can see, these wheels are cleaner than when they are manufactured. You could eat off these tires and they are probably cleaner than your kitchen plates. I'm sure you noticed that the wheels don't have center caps. The guy kept the Audi center caps for his SPORTEC wheels, so I have some SPORTEC center caps - however the center caps from the rave wheels will fit the TT wheels, so I'll have VW center caps.

Finally, my car is coming together. I went on an ordering spree last week and I got:
Hella Red/Clear/Clear/Red tails
Front/Rear euro bumpers
Reiger front spoiler lip
And, I will be getting a custom Remus/TT exhaust setup (hopefully! Someone buy my exhaust!) and a painted 4mo rear valence to go with that. I'm also going to get some TT pedals.
I'm pretty excited cause these are my first cosmetic mods. I did them last because I think that performance is more important than looks, but that's just my opinion. Now that I'm done, and everything is coming together, it's a good feeling.
From now I am just going to drive my car, maintain it well, and enjoy the power and look of it. I actually mean it this time when I say I'm done... I have 30,000 miles and I've put WAY too much time and money into this bad boy, and it's just depreciating more and more each day.
Anyways, just thought I'd share. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Just wondering who you got the bumpers and Reiger lip from? I could have hooked you up. I thought everyone knew that by now

I got the rear for 110 bucks....

I'm getting the front one tomorrow from a friend for $200 and it's painted... it's been on his car for 6 months and is in perfect shape.

Oh no no no... these wheels have been kept with Zymol Wheel Treat (EXPENSIVE!) The guy I bought them from is kinda a nut, but he sure knows his stuff about cars and cleaning products. I can't wait to wash my car tomorrow, put on the wheels and the bumper and take some pics.

As promised... here are some pics of them on my car. I didn't move the car out of the garage though cause it's raining outside... and, well, the wheels are just so nice! I couldn't get them dirty just yet.





Dani, I got the wheels off of "MichaelTT" on the AudiWorld forums. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Sweet wheels. But this begs the question...what are you doing with your old ones?!
