Want to move them out a bit. Thoughts?

Thanks
Tory

Also help me understand.. offset.

35 stock S4
25 stock allroad

35 pushes the rim further under the car
25 further out.
So if you went with a wider tire rim, you would want to go something like a 32 to clear the fender and get more under the car (watching our for suspension parts)..

Am I right

Default Greater the offset the closer to the car...basically...

Stock offset is 45. 35 is the common offset for aftermarket wheels. The wheels are more flush with the fender.

32 offset would rub pretty bad if you are low enough. 36-38 seems to be the offset which allows you to run the widest tires.

ET is the measurement in millimeters from the hub to the centerline of the wheel.
