Aight Audi fanatics,

As promised, new pics of the wheels installed: 18" Miro 111's (35 offset) and Vredestein Wintrac Xtreme Tires

Funny thing is these are going to be my summer wheels but I got too excited and mounted them on with the winter rubber. I know I'm gonna cry when I have to clean them but they just look so good!!! Love the concavity on the rims.

Next mods are going to be a stage II APR chip tune, shocks and struts (riding like an SUV right now!), new exhaust and rear valence (might go with a dual exhaust), diverter valve, catch pan, and intercooler!

What you guys think???

Not bad - I tend to like the more simple wheel designs, but those dont look too bad now that they are installed.

They remind me of the Infinity rims that were/are on the G-coupe...

How do the tires ride?

By the way those Vredestein winter tires are among the best money can buy!

looks good! i love my summers as well but couldn't bring my self to ride on them for winter.

sweet list of upgrades. the APR 2+ is just really a high flow cat and they redo the software and the only change is to clear the o2 sensor so it doesn't throw an error code. to be honest i find i get 100kms less gas a tank now with it done. not really to sure why. before i got it done i would get 700kms on avg. now i get 550-600. going to be asking H2Sport if there is something wrong or an update for it when i go in the spring for coil overs or exhaust.

Thanks for the comments everyone!

@Voodooca - The tires are the best winters I've ever purchased. I had Dunlops. Michelins, and Bridgestone Blizzaks before and these tires just seem quieter and more responsive. Not too many people here can get these tires at a good price...I was quoted $320 - $500 from a few shops which I thought was outrageous!!! I ended up getting the better deal because I bought rims too. Everything was from Miro at Euroline Performance.

You need Audi centre caps and nut caps to finish it off.

I completely agree...does anyone know where I can get center caps that fit these rims. I actually Called Miro Wheels but they don't make any other center caps. They suggested going sticker!!!
