how would wheels with a size 8x 18 et45 compare with my S3 alloys please , i think mine are et 54 ? but not 100%
 
my wheels are 8 x 18 et 44, look absolutely perfect i think, fitment i mean. wheel design is up to an individual.

The reason i ask is because i have just fitted my h&r spacers so would like to keep them tbh , just wondering how the lower offsets would affect things
 
well without spacers my wheels sit about flush with the wheel arches. i think with spacers they will stick out to much.
 
yes that will be the lower offsets pushing them out further which is what i thought would happen tbh.
 
I got them and the fronts sit flush. Rears are a bit tucked in.
 
Without spacers.

18x8 et45 will sit perfectly in the front, and 5mm from the edge in the rear but they wont rub.
if you want them to be sitting like the front, you'll have to add 5mm spacer in the rear wheels but they rub all the time, i had to remove the spacers on mine
