Default 20 inch wheels offset questions

Hi guys, I'm trying to get a set of second hand MAE wheels.


front: 20 x 9J 38 offset.
rear : 20 x 10J 40 offset.


I'm now running 20 x 8.5J 35 offset all around with H&R springs, wondering is it able to fit especially at the rear?


thx a lot ^^

The offset itself is not the only factor to be considered -you also need to factor in the shape of the inside of the wheel spokes, as they might rub the calipers. So you are best off test fitting the wheels to the car, or having someone local to the wheels doing so to their A6.

You also are talkng about a staggered setup here - not recommended for these cars, with quattro.

What he said- staggered setup is not recommended for cars with quattro.

The rears are will fit . I am running 20x10 et40 square on h&r springs and I don't have any problems with rubbing.
