I am also have the 402 mod down 20mm/17mm, at least while parked.

Any suggestions? Any pics?

Default Did you try cheapwheels.com?

Call them and they'll go with you over the entire application.

But if you are willing to spend about $650 per wheel then go to www.der-abt.de
These are the Abt SP1 wheels on my car, 19" 255-45.

Good luck!

Default Contact SOnny on the Rocky Mtn forum, (edited)

I think he had some 19" RS4 replicas that he wanted to sell. You'll need spacers for them to work on your car, but they would look nice.

as far as tire size, I'm not sure tirerack.com has a good +1 or +2 size calculator that should be able to help you.

with the offset that is more a function of rim width. if they are 8" wide rims you want to shoot for ET 25. 8.5 wide rims should be ET 20 if you find rims with a different offset you can use spacers to achieve the right offset.

ET32? Did you use any spacers? Would ET35 with 255/40/19s fit w/o spacers well?

Default I believe Stock is ET25, so you would need 10mm Spacers + Bolts

Right now I'm running 25mm Spacers
