Is 19x9.5 too big for the front of an 03 a6 2.7t? A couple sites say different things about how big I can go with the fronts. Im not really looking for a staggered look. I just want 19x9.5 for my front and rears.


I have made up my mind as to the wheel :
http://www.benzclub.ru/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=30856&stc=1&d=1230285275

Comes in the following sizes :

Size bolt ptrn offset
19x8.5 5x112 32
19x8.5 5x112 25
19x9.5 5x112 35
19x9.5 5x112 25

some say I can only fit the 19x8.5 with the 32 offset?
I have not done any mods to my suspension as of yet.

[confused]

i have 18X9 on my a4 and i know that people fit 19s on a4s and i dont see the width being to wide on an a6 so i would think that you would be ok! my car isalso dropped almost two inchs. so on my view point the width should be no problem and i dont see why the diameter would be either

I actually wanted to know the same thing, the answer would help me make my decision on which whells to get.

I would expect that to line up with my fender perfect. I own a 4.2 though. Don't you think that will poke out A lot on a non widebody?

depends on:
tire size you will use,
offset you will use
spacers or no spacers
what calipers you have
how low will you want you car
what springs/coilovers do you have now
design of the rims....sometimes offset is not enough, so design of the spokes play a little role there...

I guess I'll just get 8.5 all around and save me the headache of any future problems
