New Wheels??

[nora2004]

Well after having my new 2.7t for 2 days I want to change thewheels!

On my last A6 i had a set of new Rs6 18" wheels on it, and it looked fab!

Im thinking of 19" this time but worried about the ride quality, will there be a massive difference, or should i stick to the 18's?

What about tyres, i really want some tyres that produce little road noise, whats recommended for this?

And finally, seeing some a6's on different style wheels would help choose, so what you got, post em up and inspire me! lol

You get 18s on RS6s, which are big enough, personally I wouldn't go any bigger than that. To keep the correct rolling radius etc you'll need 235/40/18s.

I've got 235/45/17s on mine, they're big enough considering its got the Sport (aka rock hard) suspension and the wife drives it mostly.

I've used Bridgestone Potenza RE050As, Michelin PS2s, Michelin Primacys and currently using Dunlop Sportmaxx on my A6, all of them are quiet tyres. The Dunlops are a little softer and have actually improved the ride comfort, which is something you might want to consider when putting 18s or 19s on.
