Can you give me info on the wheels? What size tires you running, what offset and do they rub at all? You ever consider selling the parts? You could have easily sold the MP Wheel (not to me, since i just got a new one). But I'm sure some member here would buy it?

Those of us that actually drive our cars don't think it's high mileage I have a 2006 with ~14k miles.

255/35 & 295/30 ..... As i said in previous posts they barely rubbed on the inner plastic wheel well and i have the wider of the two PS2's A 285/30/19 would fix the problem... I will find out the true offset for you.
I would consider putting it back to stock form, ask less money and sell all the after market stuff...

You have your OEM rims for sale? I'll take the two rears?? I'd buy the Kinesis if they were dirt cheap, but I prefer 18s. the offsets would be greatly appreciated. Also, if you could comment on if the outer lip has some room, since the inner rubs?

Nothing to laugh at, the Audi S8 is a nice vehicle. If I needed a larger sedan, I would seriously consider the S8.

Nothing wrong with that. I have an 05 like you with 19.8 on the clock. Why spend the money on these great cars if you are only going to drive them for three thousand miles. Let the Lambo and Ferrari owners worry about their precious miles.

My thoughts exactly. It's not like we're driving limited edition vehicles. They are badass, for sure, but they are meant to be driven. On top of that, regardless of the mileage, the value of these cars starts dropping like a stone as soon as you buy them. If I'm going to lose a bunch of money, I plan to enjoy myself while doing it.

not laughing at all. I had an S4 and Audi makes a great product. The quattro system is the best on the market. Benz or BMW's all wheel drive systems are not even close. Good luck on that.

If you are looking for a good price on an S8 a good friend of mine is the internet sales mgr at local Audi dealership here and he is known as "the king of cheap" and can get whatever you want. The dealership just wants him to move cars so he sells them as low as he can. If you want his info send me a PM and I can put you in touch with him.

Mine's an '06' with over 20K. I drive it every day rain or shine. Couldn't care less how many miles I put on the car because I bought it to drive it...not re-sell it. But, that's just me. Drive the wheels off it and enjoy.

LOL.. My 03 has 92,400km.. I drive it everywhere, do everything with it... snow, salt, rain, shine.. i dont care.. I enjoy it.. I repaint it when it needs it, and I fix whatever breaks..

So far, I've only had 1 problem... BRAKE FAILURE.. that was a scary day in my life, but other than that the car has been trouble free.. And my car is a lab rat.. I take it apart and put it together so many times, I am surprised most parts havent fallen off already...

Enjoy it.. It's a car and that's what they are made for.

hahahaha.. didnt notice the date.. i saw the replies so I threw my $0.02 in..

Secondly.. Ok.. i guess that little joke didnt come across the right way.. LOL.. I was trying to say that the car and engine are strong because I've pulled the engine and exhaust apart so many times and everything is still working perfectly....
