This guy has an 11" rear but I have no idea what offset he's running. This is the only picture I have. I've called forgeline about this car but haven't gotten a response. Apperently the guys name is Zumac. The car is posted under the forgeline members gallery.

Nice selection of pics...

I have 10 x 19s on mine ET 20, no problems at all with clearance etc, unsure what the cambers are set at, but it's near enough to OEM spec from what I recall.
I have 265 x 30 tyres, with a very slight stretch, this allows for extra clearance, think 275 may cause problems for me.

Also, I thought those OZ wheels on the mean Black B5 were 20" not 19"? They look huge and very aggresive

Which wheels do you have in mind if you don't mind me asking?

evidence of an 11" rear. I spotted this one on rs-quattro but I don't speak german. The owners name is Mortiis and he also says he's ran an 19x11 gallardo from and rear.

Are you sure they are 11J wide on that Forgline Imola RS4? I find it very very hard to believe they can tuck under the arches/fenders like that with that width wheels, not without extra work being carried out on the arches...

You've sure got a good selection of wide wheels on the Audis!

The white Saloon looks nice, and they may infact be 11J wide! They look like they poke out a fair bit

Thanks! Been collecting for a few months. About to pull the trigger but to scared to spend 4k on custom built wheels with no return policy if they don't fit right... I'm getting ready to throw down and just crossing my fingers I get this right! :shock:

Woah, that is a nice wheel, what colour is your B5?

So, what spec have you decided to go for?

Thanks! So far it's 19x10.5 front and rear +17 flat black face polished lip. Still in the paint booth but it's comming out as macadamia metallic. Calipers and rotor hats from alcon 6 piston fronts 14.5" and 12.0" rear are being powder coated ktm orange. Hoping to camber it in just a touch pull the fender a slight bit and tuck just a tiny bit of tire. I have really hard suspension at 725 lb front and 782 lb rear so I think I should be fine.

You know you want Jules!!!

Macadamia Metallic (unsure what colour this is) with Orange calipers and those wheels mate??? you going for a true custom RS then!

Can't wait to see the finished product
