Wheelsandmore Audi R8 GT

Updated on

A nice car tuning package for the Audi R8 GT has been unveiled by the company Wheelsandmore. Calling it the Supersport Edition, the German engineers focused on lightweight parts and optimized the performance of the race ready car. A 40 percent lighter exhaust system was installed underneath, allowing the Audi R8 to breathe easy and sound better. It also has remote valve flaps to change the exhaust tone and is constructed of stainless steel. Along with the performance tuning, the modified Audi R8 Supersport Edition now produces 611 horsepower and 585 newton meters of torque.

More lightweight aftermarket parts were found with the three-piece forged alloy wheels measuring 20×9 up front, and 20×11 at the rear. These come wrapped in 245/30/20 Continental Sport Contact 5P tires at the front, and 295/25/20 sticky rubbers out back. Suspension tuning came next, where Wheelsandmore decided to hook it up with a KW Automotive LCS hydraulic lift system. This is controllable with a remote, and can lower or raise the car 40 mm to prevent any damage from road hazards. The new adjustable rebound and compression damping system on the Audi R8 GT now allows the car to adapt to all road conditions very easily.

  1. It seems that Audi having a lot of new cars this year. By the way, the car is pretty awesome. The look of the car is very sporty, and the added performance is better. The name really fits for this car because it is a powerful one having V10 engine and the top speed is increased by 10 mph…
