BBS CHr 19"

Post by JoolsDeVillan » Sat Jun 01, 2013 6:59 pm

I'm considering putting these on my RS3 but they only come in a width of 8.5j which means I will also have to increase the tyre widths.
I know the fronts can take 255 sections but will the rears be ok with 235 on an 48et as the standard wheel are 225 et50?
Let me know if you have any experiences with these sizes?

My wife has them on her S3. I think they are that exact size.

I'm running 8.5J alloys front and back on my RS3, think they are ET45. I get some slight rubbing with 235s on the rear, fronts are fine with 235s.

PM if you want any more info

Hope that helps
