forum.audiv8.com Foren English Audi V8 Forum Info - Front spoiler & wheels

Hi everybody.
I was looking to the V8s in the Galerie section...I have seen the Perrttu's one (the second from the top - the one with S8 engine) and I would like to ask you 2 questions:

- differently from other V8s (and mine as well) it has a different front spoiler. It seems it has an additional element on the lower part (see http://www.audiv8.com/german/gallery/drivers/ph_front.jpg). What is it? Where can I find it? Is it an original Audi part?

- I would like to have additional info on the wheels of the same car as well: which is the size and the tyres size?
Are they original Audi? I have the standard 15" on mine and I want to make an upgrade....

Thanks in advance for your help

these wheels are original Audi, most refer to them as the "Bolero" style. They have been standard on the V8 EVO package as well as on the 1992-94 S4 and (at least in Germany) they were available as an option for the V8 on at least the 1992 to 1994 models. Size is 8x17" ET 35, and they go with 245/45 ZR 17 tires.
The front spoiler - looks standard to me....
As for front spoilers, there is the extremely rare EVO kit like here or some people have fitted the spoiler from the previous-generation Renault Espace, wich is supposed to also look good .

Thanks to all for the info regarding the wheels....I think it won't be so difficult to find out some for my car...

But regarding the front spoiler: where can I find it? Is it available somewhere?

Thanks

Welcome to the forum, Enne. The front spoiler is very rare (Audi only made 500 of them and they were used on the DTM race cars in the early 90's as well as the 'Evolution' Sport package including front + rear spoilers and the 17" Bolero wheels). Audi will not sell you this part unless you can prove your car is an Evo model (and then they want lots of money for it).

On very rare occasions, they are for sale on www.ebay.de but usually sell for lots of money.

As Super Dave said, you can visit my website and see all of the factory wheel options, as well as some aftermarket options.

Riguardi,
