no drive yet because I just applied ceramic coating to them and hasn’t had time to cure. Just a test fitting for now. No rubbing at full lock in either direction so all should be good. RS5 wheel will be my summer set with the stock A/S for winter duty.

You were testing the RS5 wheels with 265/35/20 tires and the fit was good with no rubbing? This seems like a better tire size than the 265/30/20 that came on the B9 cars with BO wheels with (Continental tires. ) That tire does not have enough side wall and has a stretched look! Really nice to see that the 265/35/20 tire fits with no issues. Do you know the offset of the RS5 wheel? Is it about 34? Thanks for any information and have a swell day.

I went with the 19” RS5 wheel with 265/35/19 as standard on the RS5. 20’s on my DD is too risky with our roads.

Specs are 19x9 with an ET24.

I believe the 20 inch RS5 wheels were around ET27, so those should work as well in the 265 width.

Any more offset and these wouldn’t have worked.

Longish video but I think the turbo sounds nice. This was a cruise towards Malibu with some SoCal. cars.

Sounds good 👍

impress with sound isolation on camera, what’s your setup?
