Audi R8 by MTM
MTM is about to modify the Audi’s sportscar R8, and here are the first images of the prototype. The test car is equipped with forged mtm bimoto rims which – due to their style of construction - are very light but yet rigid. The rim sizes for front and rear axle are specially customized for the R8 and positively influence the tendency to over-/understeer. Sport tyres – so-called semislicks – with MOT approval are optionally available . The rims will be in stock in June.
A special tidbit will be the exhaust-gas system made of stainless steel which will of course be delivered with a flue gas damper control. MTM will also improve the already impressive serial sound. Thanks to an elaborated damper piloting MTM increases the volume without leaving the permitted range. The result is a TÜV certificate delivered with every exhaust-gas system. In stock presumably in May.
Spacers for series wheels, brake pads as well as sport brake pads with 380x34mm for the front axle are already available!
