Hi guys.....
I'm looking to raise the size of the alloys on my s3 from the standard 18" to 19"
i've got my eyes on a set just now and want to find out some facts from people in the know
right... Here goes!
The tyre size on my car at the moment is the 225/40 r18... Et56... 7.5j width... Just the standard s3 alloys... The new alloys that i'm eyeballing at the moment are r19 width 9j et33 .... The recommended tyre sizes for these are 255/35 r19
will these fit on a s3? I know the poke is increased by 42mm but the inset decreases by 4mm... I'll need to measure that poke against the old alloys to see if they're goin to stick out too far....
has anyone fitted these to a s3? Are there any clearance issues? What is the maximum suggested width for a s3? Can you safely put 225/35 r19 tyres onto an alloy 9j wide?
Cheers, jacko
