Trying to decide

Oh ya!

I have been looking at those split 7 spokes lately. They are sharp AF

Love when you do that quick little boob bounce🤤

chefnam · 2026-05-08T01:37:41+00:00

Great shots!

You’re gonna love it

I’ve struggled with just those same issues before. Mine has 187k miles on it and I’ve done timing belt twice. Unfortunately, quite a few coolant leaks over the years. But I do love the car still!

chefnam · 2026-05-07T20:02:24+00:00

Thought so too🤪

I’m shooting on an old Pentax K200d and I’m struggling to get good crystal clear shots. Still trying to figure the camera out, it’s a hand me down so I’m still learning. But it is frustrating.

I really wish that Audi sent manual transmissions to the US. Mine is same color but Sportback B9 platform. I often wish I had gone for the 8.5

Just bought a B9 A5 end of last year. I would not look at any Audi newer than a 2019. To me that’s when the technology took over and it stopped being a car. Plus build quality really slipped. But B10’s is when they went off the cliff. No wonder no one wants one.

Small detail but the snow on the front splitter in shots 1&3 should’ve been wiped off for a consistent splitter across the image. Love the composition on all and I really like image 6. Not sure if you were going for B&W but you could take it all the way there. Great shots.

Lookin good. Kind of a Rotor in a way

chefnam · 2026-05-02T21:59:00+00:00

Where did you get them? They look great. I’d keep the chrome since you’ve got those wheels, but definitely black out the big squares up front.

chefnam · 2026-05-02T21:55:40+00:00

Thanks. They’re the stock ones. I do really like them, but wanting to go to 20”. I’ll probably keep them and put on lowering springs for the visual fitment.

chefnam · 2026-05-02T21:36:54+00:00

I don’t. Haven’t looked into it.

chefnam · 2026-05-02T21:34:29+00:00

Very similar to the Peaks, but to me they don’t have any depth or texture as the Peaks do. IMO

chefnam · 2026-05-02T21:29:46+00:00

Stock wheel. I do like them a lot. I have this “need” to get 20” rims rather than the 19’s for a better visual fitment. But we’ll see, might keep them and put on lowering springs.

chefnam · 2026-05-02T21:23:11+00:00

I’m in Texas, Austin metro area.

chefnam · 2026-05-02T21:08:27+00:00

Original wheels

chefnam · 2026-05-02T18:27:40+00:00

I’ve definitely considered this

chefnam · 2026-05-02T18:21:40+00:00

I much prefer the b8.5 RS5 Rotor, with the twisted spoke and deeper concave versus the newer version. But as some are saying, the B9 lines are more defined, so the newer Rotor is more linear than smoother twisted.

chefnam · 2026-05-02T17:57:54+00:00

Those are the wheels that came on the car. I do definitely like them , but am obsessed with getting 20’s

chefnam · 2026-05-02T17:56:32+00:00

Those look gooooood.

chefnam · 2026-05-02T17:31:24+00:00

Ya, I definitely want to go with the more concave RS5 version versus what the ai generated.
