AEZ PARON 18x8,5 ET32 to A8 ??
Does it fit to A8? I mean ET, is it correct? Tyres are wrong size in that link but with 245-45-18, should be okey?

Tire size is good, that's an S8 stock size.

Not so sure about the offset. It pushes the outside edge of the tire outboard 0.879", and the inside edge moves 0.379" outboard. That seems like a lot, on the outboard edge move.<ul><li><a href="http://gs.tolan-hoechst.com/tirecalc.htm">Tire/Wheel Combination Calculator</a></li></ul>

The ET32 is near the limit but OK.
The outside of the 18x8.5 ET32 wheel extends 1mm further out than the wheel of my HRE 20x9 ET39, which has never touched the fender. You'll find other wheel/tire pics with the HRE's in my <a href="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/users/17157.phtml">Picture Poster</a>.

And, there's the definitive answer, from a wheel & tire expert who's BTDT.
By the way, teppi, that's Randy's table in my previous post, to give credit where credit is due. It lives in his picposter, if you ever need to refer to it.
