New to the forums and new to Audi so I thought Id drop a line about my question.
I have a pair of 275's that are pretty much brand new and I would like to put them on a some VMRs in the REAR on my B8 S4...anyone ever attempted this?
Thanks for any and all input,
Nick

I ran on 275 - 30 - 19 on my b6.. So its supposed to be possible since you have a larger car.. with the correct ET of course :)

these are the VMR 710's ET45 19x9.5, the tires would be 275/35/19 in the rear...my bad for not posting more details

One shop that we work closely with has run 275's square on the 9.5 ET45's with no rubbing issues, but we can't guarantee the fit, I'm just relaying the information!

Thanks Andy, I just wanted to get an idea before I have them put on and they rub. Trying to minimize the time that tire mounting machine is on the wheel. I have had bad luck in the past with nicking a wheel or two.
