I got it directly from EMD when they were still offering them. Fit was great, no issues.

We had a B9 S5 (and RS5) in for ABT Power Modules a little while ago.





Customer left here up about 70hp/40ft-lbs. Not bad for a couple hours worth of work!

Nice wheels!

I have to fight to NOT do the turn around and look after parking and walking away.
Love this car the more I drive it.

Johann,

What wheels are you running? Size, offset and finish. Finish looks really good.

VS Forged VS02, 20x10.5 ET30 in matte brushed bronze coming at 20.5lbs a piece wrapped in 275-30/20 Falken Azenis. Best finish I found when you are not much into cleaning wheels every 100 miles!

So no carbon fiber wheels??

Thanks. I was curious about the VS Forged wheels - great pricing. So the 10.5 width and 30 offset sounds aggressive (I like aggressive).

Yes it's an aggressive fitment for the b9 but no rub at all and they don't really poke. It comes from the fact that my previous wheels came from my b8.5 and the were 10.5 et27 and seeing what was a bit off limit for the b9 I knew what to expect with the et30.

Classic white and black.

[S3DUDE]

^^ did you changed the grill? my 2019 S5 doesn't have that sweet grill..lol. You car looks bad ass by the way. I like the combo of white with black, simple but eye catchy.

[Johann@Carbnlab]

I don't want to imagine the cost of development and all the certifications needed to be able to sell a carbon fiber wheel! I was looking at a YT video on how Koenigsegg makes their own carbon fiber wheels, once you have the machined billet mold it's not that complicated and pretty standard technique but THAT billet mold must cost a few 100K!

Yeah RS grille, also blacking out the headlights and deleting the amber made a huge difference.

Car looks awesome!

Where did you purchase that front splitter? And is it a good fit with no issues? How's the quality on that thing?

Thanks for your replies in advance!

JC Sportline from China. Got the tip about it from Johann above several months ago. Fitment is decent, quality is good, albeit the two side pieces are relatively thin (not an issue here in South Florida). Found the splitter on alibaba and then directly dealt with JC Sportline to make the purchase.

Quick snap I took a little bit ago, before a gardener decided to blow dust all over my freshly cleaned car 🤦🏻*♂️

Wow.

They aren't terrible (still better than a MB or BMW with runflats, even in 19"), but they aren't comfortable either. Just not enough sidewall. I noticed a significant improvement in smoothness and responsiveness when I dropped down to 19" wheels.

Just upgraded from my 2013 3.0l Quattro diesel to an 2018 S5 sportback with all the toys and love the tech but most of all sound and endless revs...

Kind regards in SC.

I agree with Zed's comments below. I'll also add that I didn't have any issue or complaint about the ride and still don't, but I did notice a difference when I had a loaner A5 with 19's.
I think the look is worth it. :)
Also think it's a shame that you can't get on the S4. They'd look great on the S4.
