OK finally called up CCW and ordered my rear lips to push them to 11 in back and moving rear lips to front to get 10 in front so now i'll be at 18x10 and 18x11 =)

been on a 11 day straight work schedule so after this week I'll finally get to add my other parts on the car and order a few other things. Going to work on the B5 S4 this year so I'm not going to do much to the w203 this year, maybe some VIP interior stuff. Tearing the Audi engine apart right now already and ordered a RaceTec front mount already. Post pics with new wheel setup once I rebuild the barrels.

Just read through about 30 pages of your thread (Don't tell my boss) and have a few questions.

I know its a long shot, but do you still happen to have those smoked side markers? I saw you listing them several times but I never saw mention if they were sold are not.

How is that single intake tube working for you? Any noticable gains? Hows it sound? Happen to have a parts list for that? What did you do with your smog pump hose that goes to the intake tract? Was it worth the hassle?

Car looks fantastic.

I just left the world of Audi, my B5 just jumped timing 20k before the belt was due to be changed. I can't bring myself to scrap it, so she sits in the garage with a brand new 12 piece control arm kit, 4 new wheel bearings, and 4 new pads/ rotors lol.

I have an entire 2.8 5spd parts car I'd sell for cheaper than a conversion kit. With new tires, bearings, exhaust, brakes, and control arms.....

I'll get to the manual conversion later unless I can find it cheap somewhere. I kind of like having one manual and one auto especially during traffic or out on dates or long trips. Fixing to order parts to build up the engine, still deciding on my path for how I want to build the engine, been researching on audizine.

Good note is my rear lip from CCW comes in today so about to run 11" in back !!!! beast mode!!! going to see if I can pull the fender out even more, had to customize my fender roller so it can pull even more lol

215/40 front and 235/40 rear... probably tearing it apart this weekend or next. I have Audi torn apart too so I need a car drive lol gonna borrow my friends GS for a few days so I can do it. CCW already thinks I'm nuts cause they know the rear is a pain to pull and roll.

I might have my friends body guy do custom sheet metal flares but I'm going to push the limits of how much I can pull the fenders and might have to camber the front some. Gotta step the game up and go where others haven't yet. =) phase 2 coming into effect.

I poke a lil right now but I really haven't pulled the front fenders much so I think I'll be ok once I pull and camber a lil.

Ahh, you always keep things interesting. Nice color (actually like it about as much as the color it replaced, so I'd call it a push ).

Too wide in front for me, but then again, you always go further than I would on these things. How soon til the rims are done again?

I'm actually aiming for a second set of CCW. So hopefully by summer I'll have another set of wheels hehe. Don't think I'll ever give up these sets just add more to the collection haha
