Finally got quality pics (GTR wheels)

Sorry for making another thread, but I figured the old one wouldn't get any attention... Also, sorry my A7 is in the shots, I washed both and figured I post some pics on the Audi forums as well.

Finally got a chance to take some quality pics so here they are! I still don't think the pics do the car justice, but whatever..

Let me know what you think!!

Looks good, but the rears are way too aggressive. Love the A7 too. We have the A6 with the same 3.0T and it is absolutely brilliant.

Undeniably beautiful cars, and beautiful wheels. Feeling the pride, OP.

But your Rays stick out. Looks weird.

Need a widebody kit of some sort to make it look right. Wheels are sweet, though. I am not a big wheel person, but those look nice.

Believe me, I know... I am taking to the car to a body shop today to see what we can do about it. I'm going to dial in some neg camber too. Drives me crazy!

If you ever consider a tune, go the GIAC route. It is S7 territory after a tune, exhaust and intake. Kills M3's all day long with very little effort, especially off the line.

Both rides look killer. those A7s are sweet! Maybe you'd be able to find someone w/ GTRs that's going sick aggressive (or has a GTR) that might want to trade their fronts for your rears, that would solve your problem in one simple step. There might very well be someone on the GTR forum that may be interested. Good luck as that current situation is going to require a lot of camber & tooling

It sticks out about a quarter inch, not as much as it appears. But yeah it will be difficult to completely make it flush without body work, which I'm willing to do but would rather not. HOPEFULLY the alignment shop I'm take it to can do wonders with some neg camber. We'll see.

Get stretch tires + lower / cambered is probably only option. I doubt some camber itself will do anything. It'd just make it look worse. Like previous person said above..try to find someone to switch you their front for your rears. Looks ugly how it sits right now. I'd rather have it sit on the factory wheels.

I seriously disagree, I would much rather it the way it is verse stock 18s, but thanks.... Don't like stretched tires, looks ghetto IMO. I highly doubt some camber will make it look worse. I'm not trying to invert the wheel. Like I said above, it doesn't stick out as much as it may appear.

They shouldn't stick out that much with some camber. As of right now, it looks like 1" (maybe even closer to 1.5") is sticking out; which IMO, does look tacky. The wheel is 20x10.5 +25 if I'm not mistaken, and there are many people running that size (very common Vossen size) that don't poke out like that.

Just heard back from alignment shop. Problem solved (supposedly). Wheels are tucked but not sure if it will still rub. I havent picked up the car yet. They adjusted the factory cams. No camber kit.
