The S6 is so bland in styling, i mean it's nice, but nothing sporty about it compared to the regular non-S models, that even nice wheels can't help it.

A little more aggressive than stock but still 19 for daily driving needs. Rides very nice... The stock wheels are quite a bit heavier!

Cheers ice, although that was the plan too.. He drives it every day to work and back and the roads here are pretty bad

Cheers Todd and yeah didn't want to do double dueces Just wanted the ride to be the same

The S6 is a ~4,500lb car. I like the VMRs and have a set on my GTI, but I'm not sure that the VMRs can handle the weight of the S6. I inquired about a set (in the past for the S6) with VMR and got no response

I like to think of the styling as understated. It's a great car in which to travel at a brisk pace and still stay under the radar That was the appeal to us and a factor in purchasing one as a family car.

Thats the point, understated. I drive one and it is a boring just the way I like it, refined and uneventful.

I have to admit the stock S6 does look boring, but there is a wide fender-flared, lowered S6 at Brooks Motor Cars in Oakland, CA with matt black wheels and Milltek exhaust that is a beast!
