@Autovlog you're not supposed run staggering wheels on Quattro Audi. They'll rotate at a different speed and will blow your diff. Yes I have an Audi, yes I know.
Next video: “I broke my car”
Yep, I have an R8 V10 spyder, and no way would i f*ck my expensive beautiful car up doing what this chump has done to his.........!!!.
@@bakedbeanzontoast9078 😂😂😂
@@joshruiz809 I think Mike does this on purpose to get more views, what he's done to this car in the last video is ridiculous , you can't do this to a car that's already the best, Mike's a smart UA-camr he know how to get people talking , I'll be looking forward to the next few videos as will many others.
Yep I agree. If that’s a Quattro it’s going to be in the shop for new differentials soon.
Glad you love the car and the wheels, but not a fan of this upgrade.
Looks like a riced Civic
@@Abdullah..S LOL
I don’t understand what a lot of you guys are talking about. It’s a lot better I mean a lot better looking now this is the way the should come from the factory
I’d take the stock wheels. Looks just a little bit better
never been a fan of multi piece wheels, especially on fast cars, i think they look tacky but whatever floats your boat
what is that ... is that a scratch !!
- an random rock -
Plus not as strong as a monoblock
Same. I dislike both the AMG and now R8 wheels he opted for. The beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as they say. :)
Mike I’m pretty sure you’re not supposed to have different size wheels on an AWD vehicle. They’re going to spin at different speeds and put stress on the awd system.
If the rolling diameter of the front and rear is the same, then it is fine to do. But I think its off by almost 6% in this case, which is way to much. This set up is definitely going to mess with the drivetrain.
It doesn’t have the traditional all wheel drive system that Audi used back in the day. These new r8 can split the traction up 80 percent rear 20 percent front.
@@SS-rc4kh Agreed.
Was perfection in stock form. Now it looks way too fast Furious. But opinions are like assholes. Enjoy the ride
Yeah goes for a blackout then gets chrome lips rims 😂🤦🏽♂️
lol @ stock ok boomer
It’s definitely better now but I would have gone with a different wheel IMO there is way better looking rims on the market
It's just ugly as fuck now. Why are you stancing German halo cars.. jfc
stock wheels looked muchhhhh better
Stock much better , feel your going to have a lot of issues
It looks like one of those old Honda Civic with oversized wheels sticking out of the fenders 🤣
Funny you should say that, I was thinking It reminded me of something but couldn't remember what, now I can!! Thanks... 😁
Like others have said it looked better before with the stock wheels and suspension.
Stock wheels nicer… polished lip is a bit 2005
Stocks look better, that gun metal throws it off
I prefer the stock wheels, Mike. The KW springs were a good addition though.
The yellow purple is a little questionable
exactly. these aftermarket wheels are too riced out for this car. Imagine paying over 10K for those...yikes.
Stock wheels for me to 👍 ride height ok.
@@jaycemain3962 11k lol
@@jakesta11 it’s literally the coilover color. No one will see it
Looked better with all black rims.
Aren't you supposed to run same size wheels in AWD audis because of the differential?? I heard TJ Hunt talk about it how different size wheels can actually smoke the differential!
He wants to learn the hard way.
hope so !
The same goes with 4wd vehicles you have to have the same wheel and tire set up on all four corners
The tires are wider not taller so it won’t effect anything.
@@brentvance3958 the rears are WAY taller. 6.2% to be exact. 25.75” fronts and 27.5” rear. That’s a HUGE difference for an AWD.
Personally I like the stock setup better. I think the oversized wheels detract from the look of the car.
Stock looked better, and sounded better with the Akropovic exhaust system.
Stock are nicer but whatever floats your boat 👌
To each his own but I agree with the simpler look of stock
Also I didn’t think you could change rim size on a four wheel drive system. Unless I guess he dropped the profile of the tyre down to compensate ?
Agreed
I see a lot of trips to the wheel repair shop in the future.
Perfect. That means more content
Not if you know how to drive
In Pittsburgh for sure! Pot hole heaven
Those pot holes in Pittsburgh are like no other lmao
He was fine in the Ferrari, he’ll be fine with this
1. Poor offset choice. 2. Too much poke. 3. The larger wheel tire choice must retain oem outside rolling diameter. At minimum the rear should be 325/20 21. because you've blown the oem rolling diameter dynamics, you can anticipate blowing the quattro system. Owner of Audi's for 14 years and currently own a Gen1 R8.
2 weeks and he's still ignoring the subject, wow
1. Agree. Changing the offset on an R8 without matching the scrub radius to the oem wheel specs drastically worsens handling(much more than normal cars).
2. Agree.
3. Disagree. The R8's Quattro isn't the same as other Quattro systems. It uses a heavy duty viscous coupling front diff, and allows for a lot of different drive ratios between the front and rear wheels. The new R8 has an even more beefed-up drivetrain. This viscous differential can allow the front axle to spin faster or slower than the drive axle going to the rear wheels. It does this on its own, without any clutch or computer engagement/disengagement. Generally, a normal car can tolerate max 5% diameter difference without causing damage to the drivetrain. I personally would never run staggered setups on awd cars(because a lot of other factors can impair driving characteristics), but I've never seen a person who ran a good setup blow an R8 drivetrain because they ran staggered. Also, even though I don't like the wheel/tire size he chose because the tire diameter is so different in person, if you calculate it, the difference between from and back wheel diameter is still only 5.1%. That's nothing for the R8's drivetrain. If you were to exceed that 5% margin and run say 10% or more, you will eventually run into issues where the differentials can't tolerate the resistance difference and overheat the system. The R8's diff temp threshold is so low that it will put the R8 in limp mode almost immediately before a diff issue even comes up. This is why it's reliable with with launch control compared to other cars in its segment. I'm sure you're probably a member on the largest Audi/R8 forum...the discussion on staggered setups on the R8 has been beaten like a dead horse. The first gen R8's drivetrain isn't as robust as the current gen, but it is still more than capable to run the staggered setup in this video...even though I wouldn't. I would've at least run a taller wheel up front to at least come to within 2-3% difference.
Pure black definitely looked better imo, considering the whole car has black details. When you drive it looks like it's just floating on a chrome halo, but there is no other chrome on the car that matches it xd
Do not drive the car, you gonna blow the Quattro system." differential" It's a must that matches the stock size on AWD cars
That’s guaranteed
Thought the same
And if it does, it’ll be more content and drama for him to upload.
@@whitemailprivilege2830 i am from Romania and what i realized american people does have a fanatic problem with wheels.. To be more big (they think it looks cool but dosent).. For me personaly that r8 looked the same and way better with smaller wheels and level kit!
Or program the car to tell it what wheel is has on. Otherwise... yeah, interesting content may be on the way 😂😂😂
Love the R8 but I would have left the stock wheels and the suspension. Enjoy the mods !!
At 6:35 those speakers match the frequency of the tire sound to lessen the road noise in the cabin.
If it ain't "beefy", "aggressive", or "sick", it ain't Mr. Mike.
Stradman is the king of "sick," this guy is all about "naaasty."
not a fan of those rims tbh, multi piece rims on exotics aren't my personal cup of tea, also dont like how the tires look stretched in the rear. Wouldve much perferred HRE FF15 or FF01
goodbye quattro, it was a blast :D
RIP in peace
Sorry, I had to stop the video in the middle... Put the old wheels back on...
Love your channel man, and car. Awesome content keep it coming!
I don’t like how the wheels are wider than the tires.
Looks goofy
Looks riced out, absolutely crap.....
These will be selling for 3.5k, pickup only, within a month :)
Mike you have AWD or the Quattro system. Having different sized wheels means your differentials are spinning at different speeds. You’re going to chew out your diff gears. It’s essentially like getting a flat on a rear wheel drive with 20” on the back and your spare is an 18”. Your diff dies dude.
Looks good, I’m not a fan of Black with polished lips, but whatever floats your boat.
Had them in high school on my red cavalier
Same. I feel like that style was popular like 15 years ago. Looks kind of ricey now on a supercar
It looks sick
That’s going to be one expensive set of wheels when the diff fails and it’s not covered under warranty. I was specifically told different diameter wheels weren’t an option on my R8. But it really depends on whether or not the front tires have a higher profile to make up the difference in total front/rear diameter.
And these tires aren’t the same height
I was thinking the same thing as it's a 4wd. Rotational diameter supposed to be the same for 4wds.
Isn't the speaker there for muting the drone noise inside the car? I think that makes more sense 👍🏻
So nice! You always mod your cars so perfectly! Love every mod and video you make bro!
Those wheel differences might throw a light for the awd system.
I agree. Other UA-camrs have said it is really important to match the stock size on AWD cars.
It will
@UCP5y7fjrw0QgEde-3Kw6s3A where the hell you learn your math from. 20inch up front with 21 in the back with 245 tires in the front and 315 in the back. You must be on drugs with your math

Honestly stock wheels look better and ohh yea 11K cheaper. Polished lips look horrible on black wheels. It is a Mercedes thing so i guess that's why you really like it. Whatever floats your boat but id keep that cash in the bank!
Well its content for his channel so.. Sometimes i question if he even bribed the police just to get content getting pulled over million times on the channel... 👍 😄 👍
Love it Mike, diden't think so when i first saw them but they look awsome under the car and the stance are on point 🤩
will be a nice snowplow in January. PennDOT will hire you...
Beautiful 🤩
These new wheels are my favorite so far and how that Audi looks is just gorgeous!!
all the carbon fiber and the way she sounds…🤤
The R8 is looking SWEEEEEET with the new wheels and the drop. Loving the direction of the build so far. Cant wait to see more my dude!
Oh yeah???
I think you absolutely nailed it there,that car looks perfect,can't think of anything else to add to it. I love the gun metal and black.
14:24 Did you bottom out a little pulling into your driveway?
Sure did.
Love the wheels set up and stance. Killing it with great taste 👍👍👍
Dayyyyymn!!! Looks amazing, Mike!
Awesome video, it looks great Mike!😸😸
i just love how happy u get with the cars
10:27. The optics is undoubtedly phenomenal, but when the car hits a pothole on the road, doesn't the fender hit the wheel ?
I also see that aluminum-colored ring in danger when it touches the edge of a sidewalk. It will likely be destined for several scratches.
Learn how to drive if you’re hitting curbs
@@richardjameswellingtoniv9682 I don't know if you are all this great driver, but when I see that kind of rims around, none is without scratches.
Crazy wheels🔥aye I hope those streets out there are in good shape with that ride bc here in Philly you'll be hitting pot holes all day🙄🤣
Looking at that yellow springs makes me think of a episode of "Pimp my ride" 😂😂. What's next a juicer in the center console? 🤣🤣
Mike, I may be wrong but doesn’t the wheels have to be the same size because of the 4 wheel drive system ,and causing problems with the gearbox ?
seems to be right: www.souzastireservice.com/Tires-101/Tire-Matching-AWD-4WD
Let's see how the car holds up. I am also worried about the lack of room for the wheels. Can't imagine that that will be safe to drive.
Big money to fix when he breaks it
The car looks amazing brother!!! Super dope!!!
👌🏻👏🏻🙏😍 it’s just looking perfect Mike .. it doesn’t get any better than this .. you nailed it bro 😎.. holy cow 🐮.. I hope that you can feel better traction as well .. . Congratulations 👍🏼
AWD with different wheel size = more content 😂
That new fitment with the lowering springs is so aggressive! Every time I hear your exhaust it makes me want it for mine.
Definitely the best looking car you’ve had on the channel. Looks amazing
You have the best taste an style for cars an all of your mods always fire keep it up
Now that is one beefy orange R8😍🔥
Mike, how about some orange seatbelts? A small interior mod that would make a big difference👌
Was just thinking I hadn't seen anything from you in a while earlier today - nice R8!!
Oh yeah?????
First off, my opinion of the wheels on the current c63 and the wheels on the r8 look the best out of all the setups you've had over the years. Second, I've never been a orange color kinda person but that color on the r8 looks stunning especially with it looking so good on the new wheels and coilovers. Kinda jealous right now lol... in all honesty, awesome job Mike on where you're taken the channel since the beginning. Love the videos, and i love the " repetitive content "
Looks slick dude! Was that a rub coming in your driveway? You pulled in that garage like a f**kin boss!
Car looks amazing. R8 is my favorite Audi. I love how passionate you are about car's especially your own
I think having 20" all around would have been better. Your clearance in the rear is questionable and could cause issues.
You’ve had some incredible looking cars Mike but this one just put them all to shame, what an absolute weapon!
Those wheels!! 🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥
Looks so good!!! In love with this!!!😛😛😛😛
So Cool! Absolutely Perfect!
Love the car!
That’s my favorite wheel/car combo you have done👍🏼
Looks great man I love it! And it sounds sooooooo good 👍
Lmao 🤣🤣🤣 it's the horn !!
Nice wheels. They fit well. Reminds me i gotta enter to maybe win the AMG. That be sick 😂 next to my black GTR
So I was on Rt. 22 last Thursday afternoon. My boring AF, daily commute back to Cranberry from Weirton got a whole lot more interesting when I looked in the rearview and saw a bright orange missile closing in on me at break neck speeds... I was going 90mph and I couldn't get out of the left lane fast enough. You passed me like I was in reverse! HAHAHA. The R8 looks and sounds absolutely INCREDIBLE! I love the new wheels and stance Mike. Much respect!
Those wheels look mean on the R8🔥🔥🔥 excellent choice Mike💪🏻😎
I have to say it again its a SICK CAR MIKE!!! Congratulations
That seriously looks amazing
Get your ‘here before the AWD System and DIF break ticket’
I was behind you today getting on 79s from 376. I went North, but damn does she sound awesome😍
Speaker in the fender may be to either a sound dampening speaker , just like air pods use tiny speakers to reduce outside sounds .
The R8 looks amazing! Best car so far mike. The weels are good looking, and good choice on the rubber. Its Michelin or Goodyear fore performance.
Looks clean homie!
Very cool Mike, looks and sounds awesome, bring on the supercharger 😃
F12 wheels were unmatched. Not a fan of the polished lips but the fitment is A+
Ahhhhh , Mike det der ble kjempe bra ! Nice nice nice !!!!! :-D
It’s all a bit too Fast and Furious for my liking. Good luck trying not to do serious damage to the wheels, suspension and underside of the car over the pot holes and kerbs. That’s going to be expensive… 😬
Also, I believe the speaker is the sub-woofer for the B&O music system, as below:
“The 2015 Audi R8 has been unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show, and with it, Bang & Olufsen has announced an advanced surround sound system.
The B&O system comprises 13 active speakers, each with its own dedicated amplifier, and a subwoofer placed in the front wheel liner. B&O says the system's total output power is rated at 550 watts.”
Rubbing tires are so ghetto
F12 wheels are the best looking wheel ive seen in a while.
SUPA NASTY!! Love it!!!
Just flew traffic with you and some black kia outside Pittsburgh 😅 was the little silver Altima struggling to keep up 🤣
Love it, I think the Audi is my favorite, but I would not mind having the AMG for sure!!
Congratulations, it looks fantastic!
Different size wheels on an AWD car?
The new set up looks pretty sweet man. Might need to run a bit of cambre in the back for clearance not much just a bit 👌👌if you like it that low.
Hi Mike fantastic looking wheels 😀👍
Best looking R8 out there Mike!
So how did you get it up the Auto Illusions driveway without scraping?
The Dunlop q3+ i have on my Yamaha YZF-R6 have a similar feature. It does look cool.
That looks sick man ! Great choice brother 👍🏻👊🏻
I love it, straight of out lost Santos customs!
You really need your own merch design with something like “I never speed” 🤣😂
