Hi Guys,

Just looking at some RS4 reps but not sure if they will fit. Details are -

Rim Width: 8J
Offset: 33

They're 18" with 235/40 tyres. I've done some searching but can't find any reference to a ET33 ofset. Will they fit ok?

Many Thanks

Best for our cars is et35

looks like your 2mm out alex! be reet

Dam Shame! Oh will have to keep looking! If anyone knows if a decent set of early RS4 reps let me know!!

only joking bud 2mm is feck all

ive got 2 spacers if you end up needing them for clearance pm me if you need em

Thanks MilkybarKid. I ended up buying a different set in the end with a 35 offset. However, i went to fit them this weekend and found that they don't clear the front calipers! Doh!!!

After speaking to the company that supplied them, it turns out that I have a very rare brake caliper which is slightly larger than standard. He's going to send out some spaces so that should do the trick.

Not really sure what the deal is with the calipers though. They look pretty standard and are made by Lucas. The car is one of the mid face lifts so i guess thats probably why.

Alex,

would be interested in the pn for that caliper as I am about to fit wheels in the same size and have a facelift car

I actually took a pic when i had the wheel off. If it'll help, PM me ur e-mail address and i'll send it over. I'll post the PN on here next weekend when i have the wheel off again.

none of the rs4 b5 reps clear the caliper on the s4, and if you have new brake pads forget about it. i had to use a 5mm spacer and a bit of the old angle grinder to get mine to clear with new discs and pads.

Ah man. Those are the wheels i wanted to get.
So these are made by replica? 18"?

So no chance getting them over RS4 callipers and discs then? let alone standard s4.

dont know the make but they are 18s , you might be ok on rs4 calipers, i think they have better clearance but not sure.

So what you are saying then is its the front of the calliper clearance opposed to the internal circumference of the alloy?

yea the front of the caliper is the problem, the internal diameter of the wheel has plenty of room

Just space them or get a different ET .
