A bit of E-Tron content

Not a very efficient EV, but a great daily driver with the quietest interior of any Audi. Lowered with CETE air suspension controller, riding on 21x10.5 old school modular mesh wheels, just because I still had them in my shed.

Very nice!

Looking very sweet.

I just got my ETron a few months ago, and am really happy with it. I have the Audi 21-inch turbine style wheels. Although I would never buy that style wheel as a standalone, they’ve grown on me a bit.

Thanks for sharing the pic.

Damn, I've really been wanting one of these lately. This pic makes the want even stronger! Do you have E-codes on that thing!?

Adobe E-Codes. I'm not going to invest much in this vehicle since it will be gone next year, when the E-Tron GT becomes available, and if it costs too much, I'll go back to a C8; S7 or possibly RS7 if I can manage to save some extra money. I really enjoyed the A7, so I would be more than happy to get another C8.

Good one! Gonna push the rears out? First time seeing B8 Rotors on a B5.

Yeah, I was expecting 21x10.5 ET30 to be pretty flush, but looks like I can add another 10mm with a spacer. I will need longer studs tho :/

The B5 owner may be buying my TE37s to replace those rotors, they're reps.

Eh, wheels and such a newer car just dont mix well in this one. Not feeling the overall look.

I'll have something more period looking for the E-Tron GT next year.

Ah, good old Adobe.

I too really enjoy my A7. Would love to move up to an S7 or RS 7 but they scare my bank account.

I wish I'd gotten around to dropping mine before I traded it in last week. It's really a stellar looking car with proper wheels and a drop. Gone but not forgotten. Self serving PSA, these wheels will be in the classifieds after I get them cleaned up tomorrow.

That looks great, how was the ride on the 22's and did they affect range?

Thanks, I was pretty stoked with how it all came together. Ride was great. I could tell a slight difference coming off of the stock 20s, as you would expect, but it was more that it was just different, as opposed to worse. After a couple days it just felt completely normal. The air suspension on these cars does a pretty magical job of smoothing things out. Range was basically unaffected also, but I did go with 265 tires specifically for that reason.

I have a similar experience. Coming from a C8 A7, I find the air suspension identical in ride smoothness and quality in all modes except dynamic, where it feels stiffer in the E-Tron, probably on account of its extra weight. It is also why I can't lower it more than 30mm with the CETE air ride controller, as anything lower feels like I'm riding on bricks.

Did you change your grill?

It's the original grille, just blacked out.

Nice! I’m thinking of plasti dipping mine. Is that what you did?

Sort of, it's Superwrap, acrylic based rather than rubber like plastidip. From a distance, it looks the same, but from close, it has a nicer satin finish.

Googles “Superwrap”

Hey, how come your e-Tron has the grey flare fenders? Sort of look like an add-on piece

Optional contrast lower trim... my e-tron was a 2019 dealer demo with all options.
