New wheels

Audi A3 (8L) Felgen, Reifen & Fahrwerk (8L)

hi,

i am going to buy new wheels for my audi A3 but i was wondering which size can i fit and what should the ET be.

i was thinking about buying 9x18 to the front and 10½x18 to the rear end.
With an ET on 32 or 30 or something like that.

What would the right wheels be for that ? soo i get that cool look where the wheels are fitted like this on the tire: /======
hope you know what i mean.

i guess the height should be 40, but what about the width for the front and rear wheels ?

225/235 for the front and 245 / 255 for the back ? or something like that ?

By the way … i am planning to extend the rear end with about 2 centimeters soo it have to be like 2 cm to wide.

I had some 17" with 225 / 45 , with ET 35 and when i lowered my car i had a problem with the wheels going against the coilovers in the front.

Soo i was using spacers, i would of course like to not have this problem again :slight_smile:

one thing u have to know:

if u apply 9j and 10,5j to your a3 and let him down from the lifter they will proberbly stick in the wheel arch :wink:

so i don´t believe that this combination will fit without a high level of cost

(ps: u´d better try 8,5j and 9,5j combination)
