« on: November 19, 2011, 05:42:18 pm »
Hi all,

A friend of mine is just about the purchase a 2010 S3. The wheels that come standard on this car are not the prettiest but please please make him see sense as he is thinking of fitting these........ :scared:

This is the car standard



Feel free to comment :popcornsoda:



Sorry mods this is probably better in random chat.

They are pretty horrendous! Pro Race 1.2 or 1.3 if he's going TD.

Lee, can you perhaps block his credit & debit cards for a little while?  :grin:

As the perception has shown already, they are certainly not wheels that will ever look good on an S3 in any capacity.
I'm all for different, but he's not showing any inspiration there  :scared:
