To grossly overlook the awesome handling potential your car may have in lieu of some stylistic change, primarily setting the wheels stupidly out, often with stretched tires to hurt performance even farther. In other words, ruin the handling to look cool.

Do you have what it takes?

Don't ruin your cars going too "aggressive" guys, choose somehting that lets you run a square tire with a minor roll of the fenders. It was fun for me while it lasted but tomorrow morning I am picking up a setup that's a bit different...

oO for sure. i don't think i'd ever go to the extent that you did. i'd like to fit whatever i can fit that requires only a slight roll...thats probably it. maybe a 9 or 9.5 wheel offset not yet determined...

I'll post pics when I get a chance, they're a different direction than before, a little redundant on wheel choice. I'll be running 275/35's, raising my car a bit, and learning how to drive. It was about a year ago that I went wrong with this whole fitment thing, I really want to focus on the best aspect of our cars again, the driving experience.

BTW Mike, you seem to have good choice in specs

Screw S5 tails man, IMHO rocking the regular S4 shows you don't really care about the minor looks as much and you're all about the action. Dunno, the S5 tails sure are pretty though!

9.5 +22 might be a bit much to start with on OEM fenders, a 9.5 +low 30 would be much easier/more suited for minimal modification.
