This gorgeous blue Audi Sportback with black optics package came in for a new set of winter wheels and tires. Our client chose the RTX RS II wheel which is modeled after the Audi RS series wheels found on cars like the TT RS and RS5. It accepts an Audi center cap and the factory ball seat lug bolts. This wheel also has a 66mm hub bore so no hub ring is required for the S5, those that want to use these on an A3/S3 however would need to purchase a set of hub rings as older VW/Audi use a 57.1mm hub bore.
For the tire, we went with a 255/35-19 Nexen Winguard Sport 2. These are a sportier winter tire that is less of a compromise in dry and warmer conditions than some of Nexen's other options like the Winspike. It's a very affordable winter tire and from a reputable comapny that's used on many OE applications. The wheels are 19x8.5 +35 which is 3mm inwards compared to the factory 19" wheel option. This wheel sizing is ideal and will work for many other VAG vehicles including the Q5 SUV as well as the smaller S3/RS3.
