S4 / RS4 (B5 Platform) Discussion Discussion forum for the B5 Audi S4 & RS4 produced from 1998-2002

NE1 have pics of 255-35-18s on B5? I can't remember who it is that runs that size.

Default Re: If that is a 9" wheel in the rear, that tire would go on an 8.5" easy as that wheel is way..

yes, its a 9" wide wheel, and as far as the wheel being too wide for the tire, that is rubbish. It is about what look you are trying to reach and how you want it to handle. I personally like sidewall on a tire, however for the staggered look I am going for it is better to stretch the tire(rubberband look). nothing new.

Default I did not mean "too wide" at all. I meant there are "nice and wide" and have that cool "look" you

were shooting for and that if you did not want to go with staggered rim sizes (so you could rotate your tires/wheels) you could have put those on 8.5" rims easy.
