tires

[re00199]

New member here...not quite sure of the format but will try. Anybody running 245/35 R19 tires on 8 1/2" rims on a 2004 B6 S4 Avant? Without doing any wheelwell or fender mods do they rub at all? What about with KW Variant 3 coilovers, lowered, will they still fit or is it just better to stay with the 235 tire size? Sure appreciate your feedback. Thanks

Hi and welcome aboard.

I have 235's on 8.5's with KW v3's and I get a tiny bit of rubbing under HARD cornering over bumps. I have heard that 245's will rub pretty bad.

Where do you live in San Diego and post some pics of your ride.

Thanks for the info. Looks like I will be staying with the 235 tire size. We live in La Jolla...new to this, but will try to get some pictures entered. Thanks again..

I have an 03 A4 with 245/35 19s, 19x9 all the way around with a 35 offset and get no rubbing on front or back. Car is on a stock sport suspension.

Depends on the offset of your wheels, but as long as they are in the ballpark of 35 offset, you wont have any problem.
