new tires?

[Drewlikecrazy]

I really want these rims, as they are the ones i've wanted to get since i bought my car. they need new rubber though. anyone know how much new tires would cost for it. the sizes are 225/40/18. just need a rough estimate before i decide if i want them or not.

300-800$ depending on new or used and brand

Price out tires on 1010tires. Their prices are pretty much on par with what people will charge in town. It'll give you an almost exact estimate instead of a rough estimate.

Re: new tires?

thanks. looks like it would be about $600 with install.

Maybe add in the price of adapters. Not sure what bolt pattern the pre 2000 audis are but the later ones are 5x112

Re: new tires?

theyre reps. the guy thats selling them doesn't know what bolt pattern they are, so im skeptical

Re: new tires?

If they're off of a B5 A4, they'll be 5x112

Re: new tires?

1999 Audi A4 will have a 5x112 bolt pattern. You'll need to get adapters, it will cost about $300-$400.

Rims = $450
Tires = $600
Adapters = $300
Total = $1350

Why don't you just buy some nice rims with tires from someone on here for that price?

Re: new tires?

Put up an wanted ad without your budget and see if anyone has something interesting. Or go on vwvortex and get them shipped to the border.

Just for reference I got AMG Aero II's with good rubber for $1100 by looking.

Re: new tires?

Yup $500 for a set of 4 rims is something i would recommend looking at. Then get some cheap-ish tires for them

Re: new tires?

Wait what's step 4?

Agreed. I had a set of alzors on my r32 and I regret selling them. Awesome brand.
