Looking for a set of 19” OEM rotors for my B8.5 Avant, but noticed a few people run 20x9 ET35 concave.

Anyone run OEM A6 20x8.5 ET45 and would I need spacers

currently standard S Line with 18”

Thanks

What size were the original wheels and did you use spacers etc?

If I got 20x8.5 ET45 A6 Rotors then put 5mm and 10mm spacers that would work with S Line or Eibach Pro springs?

It came on factory 18’s & I had to use pcd Adaptors for these wheels as they had an original offset of et60.

Have a look at this site & you can work out what will fit.

& you’ll still be able to run spacers if you want too. Are you going to be lowered as you might have to go for a smaller tyre size. I had 245/30/20 on mine.

No lowering just S Line suspension

So 20x8.5 ET45 with 255/35/20 Bridgestone will be fine with no issues?

I’m 8.5x20 et33 with 245/30/20

a 35 profile tyre will increase your rolling radius and throw your speedo out further

Will a ET45 be in too much as your is 12mm out more? You got a side on photo at all?

In what way do you mean? Too close to the suspension?

I would guess that it should be fine on the inside as standard wheels are 19x8.5 et43 so you’r only going to be 2mm closer on the inside. If your set on 255/35/20 tyres your rolling radius will be a fair bit bigger so will give you more chance of rubbing on lock etc and will also restrict you from achieving a more flush to the arch fit.

I think to keep comfort id be better waiting for a 19” OEM set which then gives options for lowering and spacers.

The seems to be a lot more 20” secondhand options hence by questions
