    First of all Hi to everyone! Just joined the forum.

    I own a 2006 A4 2.0 TDI 170 S-Line Quattro Avant. (Already remapped to 210)

    Thinking of changing a my wheels to 19" just wondered if anyone had done this? any pictures and will they go straight on with no hassle and no catching?

    If so what offset do i need etc?

    Also has anyone fitted the RS4 / S4 door mirrors and is it easy?

    Thanks in advance!

    Cleggy

    Hi Cleggy

    I have just got my new A4 Avant S-Line 2.0T Special Edition and will be fitting S4 mirror caps shortly. I will post up some pics when I am done and let you know how it's done.

    If you are after RS4 mirrors that will be a different matter as they are a different mirror to the normal A4/S4.

    As for the 19" alloys, I have seen a few B7s with 19s fitted but unsure to what extent you need to adjust the arches (if any).

    Hi I put the S4 mirrors on today. They are the matte aluminum finish which is the same as the roof rails. Looks very good against the phantom black paintwork.

    I recommend you look at this link if you want to install these mirror caps. It took me all of 20 minutes in total.

    Hi I fitted the S4 mirrors today and it took all of 20 minutes to fit both on.

    I got the S4 mirrors in matte aluminum which is the same colour as the roof rails and they look smart against the Phantom Black paintwork.

    They were easy to install and I followed this 'how to' guide in the link below:
