Wheel advise and suggestions

[Blueie]

Snowed in today so on the search for some new wheels. I havent got much knowlage about wheels size and whats best without scrapping etc. My car has been lowerred on Eibach sportline 50mm springs.

Currently i have 18" RS6 wheels and do scrape a bit with a full car but could be because of the offset and tyre width of 225's

Could i go up to 19" with reducing the tyre width? Whats the best offset and tyre width without any problems?

Thanks in advance

what about these:

audi a4 tt vw golf t4 van 18" genuine bbs alloy wheels on eBay (end time 09-Dec-10 15:34:14 GMT)

i spent about 2 weeks staring at these wheels, but i don't think they fit in with the theme of the car i'm going for. i reckon they'd look absolutely awesome on the right car, and they're fairly rare wheels too.

PS - i'm guilty of harrassing N8 too

No they won't fit Sub

won't FIT or won't FIT IN? why won't they fit? (not that it matters i suppose - i'm not going for 'em anyways!)

 

[N8]

They will stick 3 weeks out of the arches with adapters, so back to what I originally said

THEY WONT FIT

 

[sub39h]

why would they need adapters? stud diameter is 112?
