Default Hey Steve (new guru of spacers) I know we talked about this before...

but I dont think we took into account that my wheels are BBS CH 18x8.5's
so they are ET35 to begin with as well...
so that means I'm about 15 mm further out than stock to begin with right? Must be why my fronts look flush and the rears need a little bit...so a 10 in the rear is all I need? Double check my math?
thanks

Curious why the rear bothers you? No spacers right now?

the rear is hiding - needs to be a bit more flush - the fronts looks good though

Steve, are you sure? Doesn't greater + offset mean wheel is IN not out. So he's 12-3=9 from stock.

Default 15mm front, 25mm back... looks good, but...

I heard it affects the quattro performance, is this true?

Default What?? Mechanically impossible.....>>

Different wheel diameters front to rear maybe, but certainly not track widening....
