Default Wheel choice- 20x9 with 275/30 feasible?

Hi,

I've been looking for some wheels for an RS4 and it seems that most aftermarket replica are only 8" or 8.5" width. I've emailed VMR in the hopes that they will be doing their replica in a 9" ET20 or 9.5" wide ET25 but I'm not holding my breath.

Looking at sizes it seems that the closest match to stock in terms of rolling diameter is 275/30 on 20 so I was thinking the Hartmann 20's might be suitable.

Is anyone running 20's with 275/30? How do they fit? Any rubbing or need for spacers etc?

Thanks

19 x 9.5 wheels with ET26 19/275/30 tires and call it a day with no problems.

As I said, that would be fine but who makes a 9.5" ET26 RS4 rep?

Dunno. What about some HRE Monoblocks.

I want to retain the OEM look with a better fit. Spacers are not legal in Australia.

Any other suggestions?
