Default ryoung - what is the offset on you summer rims?

How do they fit in the wheel wells? Any mods necessary to fit? IF you have a full load do the tires hit the wells?

Thanks - Frank

Default I think his are 39 mm, (ET 39), mine are ET 35, no problem with them at all

The OD of both Randy and my tires are pretty much within 2% of stock size, and I know he has no problems, he has 255's if I'm correct, and I have 245's.

Default ET 39

.
on 9" rims, I think they fit the wheel wells pretty well. No mods were necessary or done with 255/35-20 tires; and even very heavy loads or on track, the tires have never rubbed. Some additional pictures with the HRE's can be found on the Audipages links to <A HREF="http://audiwheels.kjella.net/">Kjell's wheel page</a> or my <A HREF="http://www.audipages.com/links.html">PicturePoster</a>.

Also, at least one other person reported no problems with ET 35 wheels, 255/40-19 tires, and an H&amp;R lowered suspension.
