They are 17"

It's my wifes car, she bent the **** out of the old rim, I think putting 18" on there is just asking for trouble!! Lol. A drop would look sharp, that might be her birthday present.

Yea, she destroyed the original 17s, I don't think anything bigger would last long enough. A drop would make it look soooooo much better.

If shes your wife, she should know the deal by now.

My girlfriend is afraid to drive my car in fear what might happen to her if she actually F-ed up.

I got her parking a foot away from the curb now.

Gotta update the tail lights, headlights, Mirror turn indicators, color match door handles, H&R C/Os, Euro impact strips and she will be set. Those rims look good on the car

She just got new rims, tires, 2 front control arms, 2 tie rod ends, k&n air filter and did the transmission service.

It's the S4's turn for some love, going to have the motor pulled to have a custom set of headers built!!
