And I think the R8 is cheaper as well. Indeed, its a no brainer: R8 V10+ > Huracan. I have heard that many Huracan owners take their cars for service at Audi for obvious reason.

Wanted to fill the gap as much as possible without lowering the car and push to the max. Doing test fitment at the momment and drive around with it for summer see how it rides out. If it is good i will change the colours to darken it up on this when i start changing it back out during Fall / Winter.

How wide are your front rims?

I'm thinking of doing a 275/30 on a 20/9 front.

Yea it gets sprayed down every couple of weeks right now - still regrows unfortunately. I'm going to be power washing it pretty soon and resanding it as well.

Tires fit fine - the only problem is when backing out fully turned you can hear slightly on the inside fender (driver side). I'm not too concerned about it. Daily driving is fine, as long as you don't lower it.
