MTM style wheels

>RS4<

The offset of the wheels is ET35 and 8" wide, compared to the standard RS4 wheels which are ET20 and 8.5" wide, but they should clear Porsche 6 pots OK, as these sit behind 17" wheels no problem and these wheels have curved spokes giving more lateral clearance.

Only remaining question in my mind would be if they fill those chunky RS4 arches enough...?

Where are you based? If there's someone near you who has them (I'm in the North, and S4woody's in the South), best job is to try them on.

Thanks Harry - no, not much now, just an exhaust upgrade, K04s, RS4 intercoolers, and a few other RS4 bits & pieces...

OH! and another remap of course!

Hey Clive,

Well I think they will fill the arches up enough.

Unfortunately I'm based in the Netherlands.

Thanks for the info anyway!

cheers.

Clive,

Do you still need spacers on to clear the brakes. Very nice set up by the way.

Thanks Kevin,

These wheels are ET35, compared to ET45 of OEMs so I've been able to do away with the 10mm spacers.

Is see they only list these wheels as 43mm offset now so to get them looking good spacers are back on the cards again!

nooooo, not with ET43 there won't...you'll need at least 5mm spacers with the RS6/RS4 B7 front brake setup

Woody - the ones we bought are ET35
