    2007 Audi A3 3 door - towbar bumper trim

    Hello, I have a 2007 8P1 and would like to fit a towbar which I can remove, without a lot of it showing, and especially without modifying the bumper I already have which is the standard low spec trim with no cut outs. I am aware that there is a lower bumper section with a cut out for a towbar...

    Brilliant explanation, so where is the offset measured from? I presume this is in MM and will relate to the spacing that is needed? Also where is the best place to buy spacers from and what material do they need to be? Thanks RD18

    Thanks for your reply! So the wheels are currently on 245/45/17, will 225 45 17 be a standard fitment as they I presume they are slightly narrower? Any other reason these wheels may not fit, I think they were originally from an Audi TT Cheers!

    What wheels are those tyres on? I am still really confused to what range of offset,diameter widths etc I can run on my A3 with no problems, can anybody refer me to a list of fitments? I can only find a website that states a single accepted size for my year of A3?
