I'm looking at 2001 A4's and I've seen several that boast the sport package. Which wheels come with the package. Check out the links and let me know which are the real ones.

I know the second one posted is a 2000. Did they changet the sport wheels in 2000/2001?

Here is a link to the external differences of the B5's.

That's a great site but it doesn't show the wheels in the first link I posted. Are those a new sport wheel or something. I'm kinda confused.

Ryan H.

 

almost positive that its a sport. you can tell by the wheels, the steering wheel (3 spoke... although you CAN get that seperately), and if you look under the car and see red shocks (i believe), then bingo, its a sport

 

yes, in 2001 they changed the sport package.
and so, yes, that link is incorrect about the 2001 sport package wheels

the '01 got the RS4 wheels, and yes the 1st link you posted is an '01 w/ sport pkge.

(coming from a credible source, read sig... -'01 w/ sport pkge. )

Ok, but my biggest confusion is this: the first link looks like bigger wheels that are part of the sport package, and the 2nd link looks like what the sport wheels are supposed to be according to the website that has the b5 differences. But I don't see the bigger wheels(1st link) in that difference web page. Were there more than one sport package offered? Is one offered with larger wheels?

Ryan H.

 

Ah yes confirmation. That's why I've been so confused. Ok I thought I was just going crazy for a min. I love the way those wheels look so that's what I'm going for. If I can find something in Silver, Black or Blue with black interior and sport package I'll be asking everyone for a lot more info soon :-) By the way how much more fun to drive do these things get with just the chip and DV?

Ryan H.

 

first, good taste on the wheels
i love the RS4 wheels, think they're the hottest wheels to date on any A4 or S4, (until next year, the new RS4 wheels are SICK !!)

and if you get a 1.8T , the chip and DV make it a whole new car
the 1.8T is SOOOO tuneable !!

i've done the chip and DV so far,
plans have a Borla exaust in another month or so
then next years income-tax return will be going straight for the K04

by next may, it'll be a new car.... can't wait

Cool I appreciate the info. From what I've been reading the Sport package is 20mm lower than the usual A4. But are there other decent lowering kits out there. And how pricey? I'm going to make the fateful statement... When I get the car I don't want to modify it much. Just maybe a chip, DV, and lowering kit. Of course that means I'll be researching turbo upgrades within a year...lol.

you can also call the dealer and give them the vin # and they'll tell you if it's a sports package or not.
