Always liked the look of those, and their 4x4.25 availability-ness is a nice bonus. How much do they weigh?

I'll find out, but initial impressions are 'wow, that's lighter than expected.'

Here we are. Not super thrilled with the current look, but I expected that. I need to get back to a 200 front bumper and lower the front about an inch or two and drop the back 1" achieve the plan in my head.
Nonetheless, I like 'em! Hubcentric rings, M14x1.5 to M12x1.5 studs, and wobble lug nuts have them firmly planted on the car.

Thanks guys, it has been a long, ever changing road but I feel like its finally smoothing out. Hope my next project is to bring back AC.

Looks even better here than on the phone. They really compliment the car... makes it look mean. I like the meaty-flush look

That's what I'm going for lately. I agree though, the front end does need to come down to match the rear. Just gotta get those housings and struts cut!

It is written this 25th day of July 2013 that this 1991 Audi 200 20v passed inspection for the first time since 2007!
Going to be weird to drive it without worrying about being pulled over for an expired inspection...

Nice! Stress free driving is wonderful. Like when I welded the frame on the geo back together, I could corner with confidence!!! LOL

Coming down off the high from the weekend it was epic! Wolfsgart 2013 was great, I got to meet a few more old Audi aficionados and had a blast at what is quickly becoming a popular show that's local to me for once! I didn't take many pictures which isn't like me and so I apologize...
What was incredibly cool was winning 1st for classic Audi 8) I just about cried. I've had this car 8 years and only driven it 3 of those years. It's so rewarding to finally have something to show for all these efforts. Thank you to all of you who told me I was stupid when I thought about selling this car mid-project (including my wife, she's awesome like that).
This was after the awards - brought all 1st place cars inside for best of show judging


Sh*t eating grin


And a photo taken by Joel Boucher as the car was parked for the bag riders BBQ on Friday. Awesome work from this guy.

Wohoo!!

Congratulations Casey! Well deserved, you have a helluva clean and badass car! Wish I could have made home for it this year. Such is life, at least I'm gonna make H20, are you coming back down this way for that?

"Pre 1994?".... meaning Rubi wouldn't have been in your category? That's odd..... What else was in that class?

There were some great cars there the day before that didn't make it to the show on Sunday. I'm not honestly sure who else was in the running, but GoldenCQ was there, Toph was there with his coupe but he was on the road home early, Keith's V8 and a cherry red B3, UrS4 in incredible original condition, a 20vt pearl 200, and I'm not sure who else was in the show field on Sunday.
