Ive gone for the goodyear F1's
255/30/20, it looks tight so the spacers need to be right.

So Spacecowboy

To clarify are those 9 spoke rims original equipment for an S8 D3, or for a C6 RS6?

Does anyone know if a wider tyre will fit on these wheels under the C5 arches without rubbing? The 9.5 inch +30 offset MTM wheels for the C5 run up to 275 width tyres with no probs. I was hoping to run 275 tyres on the C6 RS6 wheels. Can ppl confirm that the C6 Rs6 wheels run a +35 offset?

Any thoughts?

Mart.
