9.5" x 19" wheels on an S4?

Post by cfoster » Thu Feb 24, 2011 1:41 pm

Looking to replace my S4 Avus alloys with some BBS LM reps hopefully but still undecided whether to go for an 8.5" wide rim or 9.5" one (both with 235/35/19).

has anyone got 9.5's all round on there S4? I've heard mixed stories that they are horrible to drive with 9.5's but I really like the deep dish look with a little tyre stretch?

Thanks
Chris

Depends on offset but that's a fair bit of stretch for a heavy car. You'd need the offset to be spot on.

Just keep an eye on the fuel filler tube to wheel clearance when there's some weight in the back.

9.5 all round I take it?
