19" 2019 Audi RS3 wheels on wife's C350
19x8 front 42mm w/235/35ZR19 Mich Pilot Sport AS4
19x8,5 rear 46mm w/255/30ZR19 Mich Pilot Sport AS4
Definitely not the traditionalist route, but I've seen worse(?)
Took about 2min per wheel with a router and carbide bit to enlarge center bore from 57.1 to 66.56mm, and about an hour with some sandpaper, a mixed bag of grays, metallics, and clear coats to turn the black 4-ring center caps into something that looks like they've been there all along.
No rub whatsoever and paid $125.00 a piece for wheels and tires with about 4k miles on them profile front stance rear stance
Also, gave interior of her car a makeover. Most pop buttons were starting to show wear, cheap foil wrap cover on steering wheel trim piece had been delaminating for YEARS(actually cut her once about 4yrs ago, or was well placed ketchup to get me to fix??) Was just showing the typical 10yr old wear. The biggest limitations/issues were the steering wheel piece and the dated feeling burlwood. I could only find steering wheel trim in same foil coated plastic, gloss black and carbon fiber w/red accent(not an option for her) so I kinda envisioned switching wood to something black, steer wheel trim to black and all the black buttons to brushed nickel/satin nickel? And here's what hap errbody knows this after wrapped with black Ash textured vinyl....just so so....esp after re-installed....kinda dull rolled dice and clear coated vinyl wrap and bang better than oe beyond expectations can see paddle shifters, steer wheel trim and buttons, (airbrush center emblem gloss black too) most HVAC & radio buttons swapped. Like diff car inside
Hello everyone,
I've finally decided to put my coupé on the forum
С300 flashed to C350, 4matic. Wrapped in "3M Satin flip ghost pearl" with 18' Yokohama forged AVS F15 wheels.
In my spare time I'm retrofitting all kinds of options and I've added almost everything so far...
Looks great @Dmurph! That’s a huge improvement. Thanks for sharing the pics with us
Thank you. Still not crazy about the wheels?!?! I LOVE 8mm less offset (outward) stance aspect it's just the wheels themselves. She likes them though and in the end that's what matters. Was literally minutes from spending a few grand on some concaved beauties but hard to pass up the tires alone for $125ea.
Update on interior: really is like a new car in there. I've since installed the same satin trim on the glove box handle, around the headlight dial, and on the parking brake release handle.
Also, I've never seen one of these in blue like yours! Very Nice! take care
