Hi guys newbee here!
Bought a lovely 1.9TDI Sport Sportback last week and having previously owned a 2.0FSI 3dr A3 I still had a set of 18" RS6 235/40/18 replicas sitting in the garage
Anyway, I thought i'd stick them on, then last night with a couple of people in the back and driving along a not so smooth road the dredded rubbing noise occurred!!
I looked inside the alloy and can see ET 35 printed on them, and i must admit the wheels do look like the stick out a little!
Cut a long story short, did I get supplied the wrong wheels - ET 35 and if so what are my options to stop the rubbing?
Im tempted to buy new wheels but what offset and size do i need?
