The 19" are £1350 a set.

I was unsure at first, I am BBS traditionalist etc

Fitted some of the CX-R`s to a S5 last week they suited the car well.

I have to say they look good. The thin silver rim makes them look huge.

There is no way you would get 255/35x19 on them though - i have tried and jsut no room in the arch by the time you space them out to clear the struts(255/35 is a lot bigger overall diamter as well)

Doug What size rim/tyres are you running on yours?

Post by **Doug_S2** » Mon May 19, 2008 6:57 pm

235/35x19

My experience of tyres on mine: Toyos are a narrower tyre so more clearance. the Pirelli Audi R8 tyres are wider than the toyo but still fit in nicely, and the pirelli P Zero are wider again and i get rubbing on long sweeping corners. Not every 235 is 235!

Look way bigger than my OEM B7 wheels just fitted to my RS4 - wonder if it's the arches that make the difference?

Cheers Doug, Im gonna have to come up soon 4 a health check...........When u guys answer your phone

The wheels are 8.5J so the 235 is a little streched but i think it's gonna be ok.

Everyone's entitled to an opinion, so as long as you like them, what's the problem?

In spite of the criticisms, I really like those wheels. They look nice.
