I'm guessing you mean 15mm front and 20mm back, it depends on what wheels you have if you have 8j 8.5j 9j and what offset they are to start with otherwise I can't help you. I had 25mm on my 8j ET 47 wheels and they rubbed I should have gone for
20mm that would have been better. Also depends on how low your car is or going to be. As for the make yes I would recommend H&R and depending on where you live, I got mine from Awsome GTI in Manchester they will price match or beat prices. At the moment I'm running 25mm front on 9j et45 with slight rubbing and 18mm rear on 10j et43 with lots of rubbing

10mm front and 15mm rear is by far the most popular option we sell for the B8 but as mentioned it will depend on what wheels you're running and also how low your car is and how often you have a car full.

I have 15mm front and 20mm at the back on genuine s4 wheels with a 43 offset 255 width tyres with no problems at all but i might change the back ones to 15mm
same as the front, they are 8.5 J

Thanks for the replies guys, si-w85 your motor looks great. I have know idea what these fitment sizes are??? Mine are aftermarket 19" rotor arms pcd5x112 that is all I know aren't they all the same if they're on the same cars???

Thanks mate, could do with taking one wheel off and finding out it will tell you on the back of one of the spokes, I have tried to find out but it seems you can get 19" rotor reps in many different sizes and offsets I have found some at 8j et35 and some at et43 also found some 8.5j with differnt offset.

Right then I have taken one of my alloys off and it reads 19 x 8.5j. My friend mechanic has said though he doesn't think it is possible to get 10mm hubcentric to fit my alloys??
Also there is nothing on the wheel saying et47 or anything close

Hi Damian, how much for 10mm front and 15mm rear? Got 19 rs4 style genuine Audi wheels, so not sure what the offset would be though...

It'll depend what wheels you're running as to what bolt head you need.

I'm on standard 18" sline wheels.
15mm front
20mm rear
No rubbing but obviously not as wide as your wheels.
Lad at work has 192 with 15mm rear and it looks spot on mate!
