Thanks :) SteveAngry 07-16-2001, 08:53 PM If it's an auto, don't bother chipping your car. The extra horse power will kill your tranny. Sorry:( If it's a 5 speed, get it running like it was when it came from the factory. Then chip it and enjoy! I'd probably start with some suspension mods and good tires first... Try: www.audiquattroparts.com www.tap1.com www.intendedacceleration.com Good luck! Steve Ankney 88 5000 Holland, MI Eiko 07-17-2001, 06:39 AM Yeah its auto.... my boyfriend has an A4 and he just chipped his at the Northeast Audi Event on Saturday in Ma... its awesome! I was trying to think of some ideas for the interior. I am going to get rims but Im not sure on which ones, any suggestions.... SteveJ_in_TX 07-17-2001, 09:26 AM Yes, they are sometimes expensive, but if you are going from 15x6 to the 15x7 Fuchs, you can actually feel a difference in the handling. Which is why I ditched the stock turbo rims on my wagon. Plus they are light (17 lbs. each!) and strong (forged, not cast). Do not listen to the knuckleheads at the tire store, Audis are weird fitment-wise and it's probably the first older Audi the kid has seen. The offset is _very_ important, and ask him if they test fit before you buy. He'll give you a dumb look, drool a little and say no, since all he's fitted wheels to are Hondas. And my dog could fit wheels to Hondas since they are so common... <steps gingerly off the soapbox and wipes the spittle from the edge of his mouth> BTW there is a guy on Audifans.com selling a set of Fuchs for $500... Good luck. -Steve Jensen 87 5kcstq w/pearl Fuchs 87 5kcstqw w/Zermatt silver Fuchs dB 07-23-2001, 01:59 PM SteveJ_in_TX 07-23-2001, 07:33 PM Send an email to Chris in PA, his email is JordanVW@aol.com.
