Hi, id just like to know if anyone knows what the ET and offset on an 04reg avant sport would be
 
Wheels are 5 x 112mm with 35mm - 45mm offset, I think S4's come with a 42mm. I have ran both 35 & 45mm offsets with no problems in a 18" wheel.
 
Im going to be using ET41 and a 9inch wide alloy, will this be ok????
 
my mate runs 19x9 et40 235 35 tyres you cant go wider on the tyres as they get close to the arch he has a 35mm drop on an se avant ,
im running 18x8 et30 225 40 and theres still room on a sport avant .
 
Have just put 9x19 on mine with a healthy drop.
235/35/ tyres
ET front 46
ET rear 37
No scrubbage at all.
 
Got the alloys, so just need tyres (225/35 i think) and some coilovers now to be sorted. Pics up when fitted :ninja:
 
Bit of a teaser of whats to come when i get the tyres sorted out

comments welcome please

I would go 235 on a 9" rim 225 will have a stretch ,

235/35 -19 on 8" just for a comparison .

Thanks paul20v, Think im going with a 215 upto now :ninja: , Need to source a metal sump guard for when coilovers go on
 
Small update, actually got round to test fitting last night as they are going on in 3weeks when back from greece

They are19x8 and will have a spacer on the rear and probably 215/35 tyres dropped on apcoilovers

Look very nice ;)

That offset is too much for me though, would worry me to death near a kerb :sorry:
 
nice wheels.... are you keeping the "B" centrecaps... or going :kissmyrings:??

Thanks, only one choice there got to keep the bentley caps or i think they wouldn't look as good. Think they make a refreshing change as an oem+ wheel
 
post the final specs (offest, tyres, etc) and pics one you get 'em...

they're look just on the limit there: provided there's no scrubbing, should be very nice....
