car is dropped to about 25.5 f 25.625 rear, no trimming or rolling. tires not purchased yet.
wheels are b7 s4, which i *think* are the same offset as OE B5 s4. its the BBS CH style wheel that i'm looking at.

i can't be right on this...
the BBS CH's that are avail on tire rack are 18x8.5 et35.
oe offset for the b7 s4 is 43mm. i know the oe "bbs" wheels are 18", but i dont know the width.
oe b5 is 17x7.5 et 45mm
does this help much?

there is nothing wrong with rolling your front fenders, i did for about 100 bucks
both sides, no issues... before that, i used to slice my tires and pull on the fenders... i think its a good thing to do
