Audi S4
New to the site and MB.. Noob Alert!
Well I sold my Audi stage 3 b5 s4 and looks like I will be getting into a 2002 white c32 this week. I did some searching but dont know the best terminology for everything so that makes searching tough. Quick question, will c230 5 spoke wheels clear the calipers? I like the look much better than the split 5 spoker amg wheels. I also didnt find any pictures of anyone running that setup but it looks like the c230 has same body and features so I can get a decent feel by looking at them. I will also be lowering the car some as well. Looking forward to a fun car and experience.

Thanks for any help

It's a nice cruiser. I prefer the auto for city driving anyways. Mine is stock but I've been in a fully bolt-on C32, still significantly slower than the s4, especially at higher speeds.
