I'm looking to put of RS GT Wheels on an A8L and I need some help on choosing the size. There is either a 19x8.5 with a 32mm offset or 19x9.5 with a 38mm offset. I'm trying to figure out if the 9.5 will fit or not. The stock offset is 45 mm so I figure the wheel will stick out 5.7mm more on the outside and 18.4mm more on the inside. Anyone have similar size wheels??????

Depending on the tire size, the 9.5 will fit.

they should fit, iam running 22x10. so i dont think you would have a problem. i would advise on investing in a set (4) of hub-centric wheel spaces though.

Looking at the pics, your wheels dont fit. They stick out aggressively from the wheels wells, so I'm beyond confused as to how you have no problems, esp since I've been measuring every area for clearance on the A8 since 8am this morning.

haha, well i have had no rubbing at all(nitto's). they dont really stick out as you they look flush with the car. also i have someone i know in cali. that is running 20x11 or 20x11.5 on some custom OZ full face wheels (non-chrome)....and also you got a new exhaust?

Der Kimbo

in the front, but the offset and tire is very important. From my measurements, a 10" with 36mm offest is perfect, filling the well and maximizing the clearance on the front suspension. Rear would ba able to accept up to 12.5. Exhaust is going on tomorrow (2.5" from the central muffler back, new X-Pipe and Burns 4" Resonators at the rear with Cargraphic 5" Round tips).

Thanks for the help guys. I'll post some pics when I get them on. BTW does anyone have pics of theirs with bigger wheels?
