Hi.

Bought some used Vertini Dynasti 19x8.5 ET38 with 245/35 Tires.
And this is what it looks like on the car, a 2015 SB 2.0Tdi Quattro.

Really should have read the original offset right so i could be aware of how much they would poke.

My opinion is that its not usefull and i am now trying to sell them.
What do you guys think?

That's too far - looks cheap going beyond the arches.

No flesh available for machining down?
 
The larger wheel offset gives the car a more aggressive stand.

I see nothing wrong with the offset, but I wouldn't gone with that color of wheel for a red car though.
 
Thou i wanted a more aggressive stand.I think its a bit too far. I also agree with the color. I have the original 10 spoke audi wheels. And think the color of them matches better with the red car. But i want a more aggressive stand. Maybe Spacers will give me the right look ?

Get the car lowered and have the arches rolled to suit. Would look really nice then :)
 
One unwanted side effect is that the bodywork takes more of a pounding from grit etc.
 
Marginal but if they stick out past bodywork, they are not legal if I understand my EU directives...
