alright guys,
i think im def gon get the H&R lowering springs for my a3! :thumbsup: these will lower the car 35mm (but only like an extra 15mm on top my s-line suspension) i want to get the new shape RS6 rims on it now in 19" but not sure of what offset ill need them to ensure they dont rub? because at the moment i have 18" RS4's on my a3 s-line quattro and they rub on the back from time to time, so lowering it and gettin bigger wheels wil mean they will def rub if at same offset. anyone know wot offset i should get my 19" rims? and wot width etc?

thanks!
 
get a wheel with et50 offset and if going for 19" wheels (based on 8" wide) I would go for 215 or 225 width tyres and you shouldn't have any rubbing issues especially if only lowering 35mm
 
just found out my wheels now are et42... i can only find the new RS6 reps on ebay in ET45.. will they def rub u rekon? even with 215 tyres fitted on them?
