Staggered ?

[cgalan13]

Hey guys I'm gunna try a new setup with rims Ie had the stock ones for about a year and I'm tired I was online and found a pretty nice set but they're staggered and the guy advised not to buy them. They're 8.5 in the front and 9.5 In the rear, I've got the 06 a3 fwd would they fit ? I was also thinking spacers for the rear mayb 20mm , any help is greatly appreciated I
Not really a wheel expert haha I just like to take pictures haha thanks for you help in advanced

what is offset

[cgalan13]

It's +35 front and rear

Rears are going to rub i think. Some rub with 8.5 35mm offset in the rears even with the fender screws removed. If they were 45offset it would be better. You'll need to stretch tires too.

On a staggered setup, 35 offset is not going to work. For a 9.5 rear, you will ideally need et48 or et50. Even running et45 will be ok, but you will have to go with a stretched tire, like 225 or 235/35/19.
This is et45 with 235/35/19 on my 06 A3.

On vortex I saw an A3 with 9.5 et40 rears (225/40) tires and it looked amazing and fit fine.

I was hoping by running 18's with wider rims and some spacers I could get that neatly tucked but aggressive look to the back , I'm thinking about dropping it too which is why Im asking haha what do u guys recommend i go with as a whole set up ? I feel that 19's won't be able to give me that look im going for , I kinda wanna be poking but not really ? Would the tire stretch help sell the look ? I wanna show up to h2o with a different look this year haha
