Hi all,

Need a little help here. So i'm picking up a set of 19x8.5 et43 2010 S4 wheels for my b7. I did some searching and I know i'll need hubcentric. What size spacers would I need to get these to fit flush with my fenders? 10 or 15mm?

Thanks for any help.

well most everyone seems happy with 19x8.5et35 so if you went with the 10s you'd be fine

depending on tire size and how low you are, anymore poke than that and you may run into rubbing issues

and not only do you need hucentric spacers you will need hubcentric rings as well...just putting it out there

For your hubcentric rings, B7's have 57.1 and B8's have 66.6 center wheel bores. So you can mount B8 wheels on a B6/B7, but you can't mount a B6/B7 wheel onto a B8.

And keep in mind, hub-centric rings CAN interfer /w spacers (I have heard/experianced reports both ways).

Could I get away with not using spacers at all? Probably be tucked under the fenders pretty good huh?

yeah you could get away with it...this is what a 19x8.5et43 wheel with a 215/25/19 looks like with -2deg. of camber

LOL now that you mentioned it. I does look like a potato peeler. Are they 10mm spacers on your car?

I have B8 wheels on, you will need hub rings + spacers in order to clear the calipers. I have 10 and 8 (F+R).

Has anyone put the 18 inch B8 S4 wheels on a B7 yet? I am looking to pick some up soon. Just wondering about fitment and if anyone has used these on a B7 and what size spacers to try first.

i dont see why not, you could easily fit et30 if you wanted too. Some neg. camber should do the work
