My new A4 1.8TQ m



Hello, virtual club!

The good news is -- the car is allready on the boat.
The bad news is -- MOMO makes Arrows only with 12mm lug holes.
I've been told, that if I ream them up to the required 14mm, I'll void the warranty.

I've been told the same thing 2 years ago, when I milled the seats on my Ferraris with a 
spherical 1" end mill, in order to be able to use the OEM lug bolts with the ball seat (MOMO 
makes conical seats on all their wheels). I took the risk, and so far, lo and behold, 
nothing happened.

Did anyone ever have to replace a wheel under the manufacturer's warranty? What are my 
chances to be screwed, if I elect to forgo the warranty coverage by milling and drilling the 
lug holes?

Hmmm, I don't really want any other wheel, besides, I've been very happy with MOMO Ferraris 
on my 200 and with all other MOMO accessories, that I have on my car.

Bummer.:-(
