Wowza. That's beautiful. I like the Seat Cupra lip added to the RS6 front bumper!

Do you have any tire rubbing issues with the 275s?

EDIT: I want those taillights for my S6! Where did you get them?

Supercharged??

Also, seems like a lot of wheel weights on there. over 4 oz on one corner. I wonder if its the wheels or the tires? Looks good!

Ya, why the supercharged badge? And the sportec stickers on the stock brembo's?

I like the wheels. And surprisingly, I kind of like the red calipers.

it's a lot of weight on the wheels, probably cheap rims and tires....i wouldn't do it just for the good looks, it's too dangerous on any car especially on one like this...

Beautifully put together.......did it take alot of fabrication to get that lip to seat flushly with your front bumper?

These are the rim style I'd love to put on my RS. I know Hartmann sell them with a hub that suits our cars and a 25mm offset aswell. Those on the car above look to be at least 20's so that is a bit big for me as I fear the ride may be too harsh. I'll look further into the Hartmann ones in a few months or so.

Google seat cupra lip

Cupra lip is a 20 minute job... use stainless steel self-tapping screws and don't f-up your bumper.

Here's a set of those wheels on eBay right now...

20" Titan OEM RS5 Wheels in, uh, Slovenia (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Audi-RS5-S5-A5-Rotor-wheels-9Jx20-ET26-Titan-look-/280825224175?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item41627cdbef#ht_4554wt_1156)

i know, but i am not sure these are OEM, could be fakes, this would explain the large amount of weight used to balance it...either the rims or tires are cheap, about the tires i am pretty sure, can't tell the same about the rims as it's hard from these pictures to tell...fakes look just the same as OEM nowadays...

Odds are that the rims are clones, but hard to say. Take a rim with slight off balance and mate it with a tire with slight off balance and you have 25% chance of the two balance problems matching up on the same side. I personally would have removed the tire and rotated it 180 and remounted. That should have dropped the weight differential substantially.

I've always loved this color combination on a car. Being an RS6 avant is just that much more appealing. Such a shame that we can't even import cars like this to North America.
