TT RS wheel fitment and info

[Jainuss]

Hello Paul are those ALTi GT1 rims available yet? thanks

They are. We’ve not yet fit on a TTRS 8S but will be doing so in about a week or so. I’m not 100% sure on the front caliper clearance. It could be fine bolt on or need a 3mm spacer. I’ll report back 👍

[mtwallace85]

We’re gonna be wheel twins. I just ordered a set of HCA162 for my RS3. Same finishes except hidden hardware. So bad ass.

Very nice! Been wanting to stop by to check out the shop for a while since I’m so close. I’ll have to come by when you get them now.

So I put a few miles on some rough roads on my HRE FF01 19x9.5 et45 w/265/35/19 P4S's and have a little fender damage.

I'm on MSS springs with a finger room in the front, little more than that in the rear. Anyone else have this happen? Only thing I can think of is to try and bend that tab up, which is partially visible in photo 2. However, the plastic 'nut' is extremly tall on it. There's also a part of the inner fender that was not rolled from the factory. Last thought would be to raise it up a little further, I suppose.

I know on the rear wheel wells it was pretty common for the mk2 with wider than OE tires to rub on the clips that connect at the fender and bumper cover seam. I know a guy who wore his down without lowering springs.

[Chuckster]

I have similar indents on both fronts from the occasional unforeseen bump every year of driving or so. Rears don’t rub after removing some fender staples and adjusting rear alignment.

From the lack of response I'm guessing no one is running a 265 tire on a 20x9 wheel on a lowered car.

As of now i have my stock p zero on 20" with my 034 lowering springs. No issue. I think they are 245 tho.

How much gap between tire and fender on your front and rear? I think I'm just going to have to raise my setup another half inch or so. Got a paint crack on the passenger side which is a bit of a piss-off, but I think my PDR guy can bend both sides back cleanly.

Has anyone tried heating and rolling that front part of the fender that is unrolled? I don't know why Audi stopped where they did, it should have been rolled all the way.

OMG, I have the same exact damage!!! It's not a paint crack, that's the fender itself cracked. I thought I caused it by kissing the rumbles on the Corkscrew under full compression. I have some scrapes on the underside of the bumper from them, figured the bumper flexed and cracked the fender.

I am on RSe10s 19x9 ET40 265/35 4Ss and on the factory suspension, no lowering.

Yikes, that’s not cool. I’m at factory ride height with 19x9.5 et45 with 265/35 Michelin PSSs and haven’t rubbed once yet, thankfully. Not sure I want to lower the car anymore.

[Solution]

Everyone on here a month ago telling me "you wont have any problems" [>_>] . To be fair, the roads I hit were atrocious (thanks, Georgia).

I'll be raising the springs up a little this weekend, but it would be ideal to roll the remainder of that fender. That would solve the issue, as I'm pretty sure that's what the tire is hitting during cornering to cause the bend. My PDR guy isn't comfortable doing it so I'll be looking around for ideas.

On a side note where did you get the front bumper componets? looks great

[JessieP]

Just looking for some advice, I'm coming from the stock 20's and I'm wanting to get in a set of 19's.

Looking at a set of wheels 19 x 8.5 ET 32 with 5mm spacers, Wanting to run 255/35/R19 on them. You guys see any issues with rubbing on H&R sport springs?

Alternatively my shop has a set of 19 x 9.5 ET 33 they said they would test fit out of curiosity (they have them on the shelf), Would those be way too wide? lol

I'm wheel challenged so your input is greatly appreciated.[wrench]

That’s going to poke quite a bit. I’m running 19x9.5 ET45 and this is what I have as far as poke.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, These are the wheels I'm going after https://www.super-speed.ca/flowform-rf05rr , I know of two people running them (nothing but good reviews, both on RS3). So just stick to the 19 x 8.5 ET 32? Do you think I need to worry about rubbing on lowering springs?

To be honest, I’m not really sure. I can tell you that that’s a 76mm poke vs a 75.7mm poke on a 255/35/19 over 19x9.5 ET45, so it’s essentially the same. I didn’t think there was anything wrong with my setup and here’s the last time somebody asked me about fitment:


You won’t have any figment issues at all. I run the same specs and haven’t rubbed once. There’s also definitely room to lower my car without introducing any rubbing.

Hey quick tire question:
Have any of you had any issues at all running SL instead of XL? I'm planning the MPS4 255/35/19 once my Rays get here. They're available from TireRack in both loadings. I feel like since our car is lighter than most on the road that XL would be unnecessary. Typically SL tires are slightly lighter and ride better. Promise to post pics once the bronze TE037s are on :)
Anyone running Conti S6?

Hello.

I believe BBS Japan's FI-R can be fully used with TTRS.
That's because the wheels of the same size are also used on the BMW M4. This car has a front engine and should have a higher load than the TT RS.
BBS Japan only gives safe answers as a manufacturer, so it will be a past answer.

I'm thinking of actually ordering and installing it.
Arrival is two weeks later.

Stock suspension or lowered? Still haven’t made a choice and I’ve been looking at these in ET40 and ET45.. I’m on H&R springs so I’m worried about rubbing (would be mounting 255/35’s)...

Stock Suspension. If I had to do it again I'd go ET45. This would tuck the wheels in a tad more and prevent rock chips to the side of the car, rear bumper arches etc.

As a context, I LOVE my track setup - Black RSE10 in terms of look (265/35-18 on 9" wheel)

Any recommendation / thoughts in terms of wheel size and tire brand/size?
Thanks!

Hi Jainuss and DocSean.

I am aware that the ET35 9J 20 spec wheels will match the TTRS well with japanese " TSURAICHI " means english " flush ".

There are other reasons why I posted the BBS FI-R.
This wheel has a weight load limit due to the weight reduction of the wheel, and there is a problem that it will not be sold for TTRS.

However, I forcibly bought it this time.
Yes, I bought it for the front of the R8 as two cars.
Don't say it's stupid. I really want to put FI-R black on TTRS.

Regarding weight load limits, we believe that the manufacturer manufactures with sufficiently safe numbers that TTRS will not be a problem.

In the future, when the TTRS is delivered, the FI-R will be installed.
Then report immediately if the wheel breaks or goes wrong.
(But I don't think there is any report)

And I'm really sorry.
My TTRS is scheduled to be delivered in late February next year.
I heard that production will start from next week.

Finally, take a look at the divine FI-R that arrived at home today.
I'll leave this wheel as a table for another 4 months.[=(]

[sajisato101]

Hey guys...I've never bought rims before and I'm finally looking to upgrade. I currently have the OEM setup for the 2018 TTRS [20x9 ET52mm].
I've lowered the car with H&R's lowering springs and that's caused a serious amount of ugly tucking/"pushed in" kinda look which looks really lame to me.

I've been doing research on some BBS CI-R Bronze painted wheels...I've found them at 20x8.5 with 32 offset and 20x9 25mm or 30mm offset.

Question: Is it bad to get a narrower wheel than what the factory provided? So in this case going from 9inch width to 8.5? And would a 30 offset look too poked out? I know the 35mm offset looks pretty nice as I've seen on this forum. I would prefer 9 inch to have a larger contact patch but I'm afraid 30ET would look crazy...

Thanks for your help!

Going narrower isn’t going to cause you any issues as long as you more or less keep the same overall height. If you haven’t used it already, willtheyfit.com is an awesome resource for comparing wheel sizes.

9 +30 and 9 +25 would be a little too much up front imo and I don’t know if they clear the brakes in the CI-R

But I do happen to know the CI-R in 20x8.5 +32 do clear the Oem steel brakes if you happen to have those. It would be a decent spec for the 8S and sit about 14mm more aggressive than your Oem 9 +52 Do.

Lmk if interested and I can check stock on bronze 👍

Neuspeed RSe11R 18x9 ET45 with 265/35R18 Yokohama A052

As an aside, I temporarily put my RSe10 18x8.5/8 ET45 stagger set from my RS 3 on the TT RS. On those, I could have the stick on wheel weights (avg thickness) at the very outside lip (raised area) and there were a few mm to the caliper on both the RS 3 and the TT RS. With the RSe11R, the weights very lightly interfere so it seems the barrel is a bit different.

Any spacers required or issue's the calipers? Also is that stock ride height on the 18's? Looks a little lowered.

Replied to your PM as well. No spacers, no clearance issues, and stock ride height.

Just bought a set of HRE FF04 19x9.5 ET45. Does anyone have any input on what kind of spacers I should buy ahead of time before the wheels arive or if I'll even need them for the RS? It sounds like with HRE the money offset is ET35 but that's on a 19x9 size. Any thoughts?

You don’t need spacers to clear the brakes up front in FFO4 19x9.5 +45.

But from a looks standpoint, the rear could use 3-5mm. With 265/35-19 that set up is nice and flush and clears lowered.

Hi all,

Im looking for 19s - I wanted to go for a set of TE37s but the only spec I could find to fit was on the face 2 version which are not very concave which put me off them. (Especially at the cost)

I have now had my eye on OZ Ultraleggeras - If you go 9.5 wide they have the deeper concave face which I think would look great on a square setup - Gloss black against Nardo Grey.

I can only find them in ET40 - Will this be too much for road use? I do intend to lower the car slightly probably on MSS / KW adjustable springs and I would like to run a 265/35 tyre (MPS4)

Will a 19x9.5 ET40 (265/35/19) setup work on a standard and when lowered car??

Hey Guys,

I have a 2018 TT RS with stock tires and wheels right now. I am taking it to stage 2 e85 in the week and want to get some nice tires and wheels to match. What is the widest tire and wheel combo I can out on this without issues? I am likely going to put pilot sport 4 s, Nitto 555r, or Toyo 888r on it. I believe I have heard or seen 285/30 19 inch fitting on these, but wanted to get your thoughts and responses on this too. Thanks!

[MisterJA]

I was lucky enough to grab a set of pre-release ZTF-01's from 034 Motorsport, size 19x9.3 ET42. With 265/35 tires and 034 lowering springs, everything just clears even under compression when cornering, provided you play with the camber (2.8/1.8 F/R in this case). The only fender contact I have had was just like Solution posted, and that was me being stupid and hitting the storm drain inside the corckscrew at Laguna Seca. [facepalm]

Do you have a pic of the front of the car going back? Like looking down the side of the car? I want to see how much the rim sticks out

[TTRS Feng]

Gram lights 57DR 19 x 9.5

I can get ET 35 deep concave or ET 45 medium concave in 5x112

I know 45 will work but I’d love the deeper ones... will the 35 stick out too much?

Also does anyone know about brake clearance. I need to order these so can’t check them out in person and can’t return for free.

If anyone can offer an opinion ASAP I can order at Black Friday discount

[erickjscott]

You won’t have any figment issues at all. I run the same specs and haven’t rubbed once. There’s also definitely room to lower my car without introducing any rubbing.

Has anyone confirmed if a 18x9 wheel with 265/40r18 tires will fit without any clearance or rubbing issues? Specifically looking at a Velgen SL7 & Pilot Super Sport combo. TIA

[mikemounlio]

034 ZTF-1 in 19" with conti dws06 tires.

They look killer. Just the right amount of wheel to tire. Also fills the fender just right. Love the look. The 18's will be strictly for race tires and the 19's for daily driver tires.

The last pic (lift on ground) is the 18" the rest are 19's 210309210310210311210312

Dude can i ask how your fitment is?

I have Bilstein B16 Coils, and currently have the stock 20 inch wheels.

I have 11mm front spacers which is Flushhhh lowered with no issues - On the rear i had 16mm which rubbed, but was almost too much poke - I wanted to go 13mm but the shop put on 11mm - No more rubbing but doesnt match the front flush.

Based on 52 offest im running 41mm front and rear now with spacers.

38 on the rear with a 9.5 and 265 lowered causing any issues?

‘17 TTS, new winter setup in on! 20”->19” (and narrower).

Enkei PF-05 (19”x8.5” +38mm)
w/ Micheline Alpine 4A (245/35ZR19/XL 93Y).

No spacers shown, fitment results in +7mm overall. Stock suspension in these photos; goes in on Tues for H&R springs (~ -1”). [emoji41]

It’s slightly heavier than the stock 20” combo /wheel.

Though I like the 20” OEM’s bright silver finish and how it highlights the other trim, the ‘dark silver’ finish here offers nice seasonal variety and pairs great with the Daytona grey (wanted something more eye catching than black). It does have more of a metallic quality and behaves differently in sun v. shade (re: two side shots). I love a classic 5-spoke and feel the curves compliment the car.

Wish I could get myself to put my Mag Blue 19” TE37 Ulta’s on my white TT.
But, I have been really lazy, not feel like dealing with TPMS’s.
Regret not having bought them in 9” over 8.5”.
The wheels were formerly on my Silver ‘18 RS3, and the fronts needed a min of 3” spacer to clear the calipers, wonder if the same will occur on the TTRS.
Maybe spring 2021 things will have things look more aesthetically pleasing.

Has anyone successfully fit an 18x10 wheel ? Are there any new offerings in the 18x9.5 size sub 20 pounds ?

Sorry for the delayed response! Too many platforms to keep track of lol.

No issues in the rear. Over reallllly ungulating dips at high speed it kisses the liner a bit, but it's a rare occurrence. I still don't see marks anywhere so it has to be light. I feel if i add a little negative camber in the rear, it would likely go away—but i don't see a need yet.

p.s. This is, by far, the absolute sexiest TT RS I've seen so far! Nardo with black emblems, matte/satin BBS scalloped/hollowed out 5 Y-spoke wheel design.... 🤤 I obsessed over those wheels as well and very strongly considered dropping the ~$8k-9k for them myself, but the load capacity scared me off. I found out not from this thread, but from emailing BBS directly. That and the desire to have a wider tire (and the 1/3rd cost of the runner up wheels) was why the ZTF-01's ended up winning for me.

But man... congratulations! As a huge fan of the TT RS and those wheels, I'm utterly awestruck. Also: The black calipers are a nice touch!

Hello chunk_split :-)

When I once visited the BBS factory,
The person in charge said:
"BBS wheels are fairly sturdy. It almost never breaks. "
I believe in this word. LOL

It's also important that the wheels don't directly support the car body.

The genuine 20-inch wheel weighed just 12.0 kg.
This FI-R weighed 8.0 kg

The total weight of the four is 16 kg.
It's completely a rocket start dash.

Get someone
If you want it for the front of two R8s, they will sell it.

[chunk_split]

Well, I already got the ZTF-01's, so I'm going to stick with those for now. The weight savings would be nice, but I think for now I'd prefer wider tires (along with upgraded brakes, which is what I'll be doing in the next week or two!). Those BBS's are so lightweight they practically don't exist, lol. The ZTF-01's are only about 1.3kg heavier than the FI-R's while costing more than 3 times as much (for me here in California). Plus, I ordered them and got them in 2 days, since their warehouse isn't far. The nice thing is that they are 10mm wider though too, so hopefully more contact and more traction. So, in that way, they happen to be just right for me. For now...

Awesome channel by the way! I'm also considering the Milltek exhaust (vid (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39NeBotU1QI)) and the more I hear it, the more I like it (and I could replay this at 0:09 over and over (https://youtu.be/Us-8McgdAno?t=9)). Definitely looking forward to a walkaround video showing off those amazing wheels of yours! If you make one, you should post it here for anyone else coming to this thread later too. EDIT: Just found one of your videos of the BBS FI-R (on a TT RS, for anyone Googling) here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZvkkxu45R4


Photo from today since I just got the wheels (try to ignore the curbed OEM wheel in the background, lol). That won't be a problem for long.

Has anyone successfully fit an 18x10 wheel ? Are there any new offerings in the 18x9.5 size sub 20 pounds ?

I quit looking for 18s as you pretty much need to go with a forged wheel to void the caliper-to-drum pinch point. That being said the only two off the shelf 18x9.5 wheels I know that worked well were the TSW and the RSE11R and both of those suffered from lack of drum clearance. We really should be running a forged wheel for track duty. I had a slight off and ended up bending the inner most part of the drum of my RSE11Rs which never would have happened with a forged wheel. They were easily straightened back out but it was pretty eye opening at how soft they were. At least they didn't break apart ha ha.

I did do a bunch of wheel testing during the off season and I don't think I could get a set of 18x10 to fit unless it was a +50 offset. Even then it would likely create fender rubbing in the back which tends to damage the paint. I could probably get away with an 18x10 for big track work but after testing the affects of weight and rotating mass on straight line and braking performance I know that it's only worth going wider if I can also reduce weight in the process meaning shifting from a cast 18x9 wheel at 20lbs to a forged 18x10 wheel at 18lbs. For the kind of racing I do the rotating mass is much more critical than it would be for parking lot autox.

After my lessons learned and testing different wheel and tire combos I'm sticking to 19" from this point forward. I found a deal on a set of 19x9.5 HRE FF04 that I will be running my 265/35-19 A7 Hoosiers on.

https://i.ibb.co/Y7RyF1n/KJWU1853-1.jpg (https://ibb.co/998Vk1K)

[HHughes1]

I just ordered one A7 in 295/30 18 which I’m going to mount on one of the TSW 18x9.5’s. Going to experiment with ride height and camber to see if there is anyway possible to run this size. Meanwhile I may get the DM swan style rear wing and have Lira Motorsports fabricate a functional front splitter. If I can get maximum mechanical and a bit more aero grip I’ll be satisfied. If I can bust a 2:19 at Sebring it will be mission accomplished.
Unless of course I decide on a built motor and hybrid turbo !

The 295/30-18 fits much better than the 295/30-19 as the 19 is one W I D E tire. The 295 was exactly 12" wide from edge to edge and would not fit in the rear even if I had the perfect rim with perfect offset. The first pictures shows my standard 265 behind the 295 which is at least two full inches wider.

For me I need to stick with the 26" diameter tire or the car gets pissed off and doesn't shift quite right. I've blown multiple otherwise near perfect laps by running a 25.6" tire.

I had the same problem with my TE37 Ultra's 19x8.5 ET45, and needed a 2 or 3mm? spacer, that I bought from H&R.

If I were to do it over again, I would have added 5mm spacers instead in the front.

I think the thin H&R TRAK+ DR spacers may have been the cause of some slight vibration at speed, and what I call a tramline feel, when they were on the RS3.

Have yet to put them on the TT RS, mainly because before I took the wheels off, I ran over a 2x4 on the hwy. and it slightly protruded the outer wheel lip I have yet to have repaired, just not sure who to bring it to here in Jax. I was told Precision no longer does barrel lip fixes, true?

But, I am in no rush to put on the 8.5" wheels over the stock 9" that seem to handle so well.

Will see after I get the car back from the shop, like what can be done as for the repair and TPMS sensors, and maybe put on the Volk's. IDK....

Jeff, can you post a full side photo of the car?
What are the tire size? They look meaty.

[Jeff_Jeske]

The tire size is 255/35-19 so the perfect TTRS diameter! Advans run wide though so these are 9.5" wide on the 9.5" rim it's pretty much perfect. I didn't take a full side shot as I was just mounting up for fitment purposes.

You can zoom in on these to get more details. The wheels really took a beating at the last track day and didn't bend like my RSE11R wheels did.
The 255/35-19 Yokohama Advan A052 tires are about the same width as my previous 275/35-18 RE71R and had about the same performance.

@Jeff_Jeske - Awesome wheels. Did you happen to get a chance to weigh them (either with/without the tires)? Just curious given they are such an ideal size and they're from HRE (so even though they're flowform, you know they'll be strong and lightweight). I know their site (https://www.hrewheels.com/wheels/hre-flowform/ff04) states that their weight is "starting at 23lbs each" but these are relatively wide.

Color is looking pretty good! I love the shape of those wheels so much. It's hard to find colors that match well with the Daytona Gray IMHO (which it's not just straight black). You and I have almost the exact same spec, facelift Mk3 with Daytona Gray and black emblems, etc. Here's what mine looks like with the ZTF-01 wheels from 034Motorsport and (latest update) my new black painted fuel door. Just got that installed w/ the new 034 front rotors (and rear rotors as well), which contribute to the look albeit fairly subtle.

Not the best photos just yet but hope they suffice for now.

Oh those are pretty lightweight, 21.25lbs for 19x9.5 wheels, decent price too (for fully forged wheels). With 18's you'll get much lighter, considering the 20's are +2lbs. My ZTF's aren't quite as wide as these but fit 265's and are only a 0.5lbs lighter and are cheaper by $100/ea. The price is reasonable on the Neuspeeds so it basically boils down to looks and potentially wider tires at that point. Looks like they'll come up with the fitment info soon.

What's interesting: I wonder if they're also made by Titan-7, because the "rigid spoke tracer" term is pushed by them too (if you google it) and it was also mentioned on 034's sales page (https://store.034motorsport.com/ztf-01-forged-wheel-19x9-3-et42-57-1mm-bore-audi-8v-8v-5-rs3-audi-8j-8s-tt-tts-ttrs.html) (who openly indicated that they collaborated with Titan-7 to build the wheel for them. 🤔

Yes I did, the rims are 24lbs.

I will be test fitting another 19x9.5 wheel shortly. TSW released the Neptune in our spec:

I'm interested in the results/pics. According to the calculator, these would poke out 19.4mm compared to stock.

Oh those are pretty lightweight, 21.25lbs for 19x9.5 wheels, decent price too (for fully forged wheels). With 18's you'll get much lighter, considering the 20's are +2lbs.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are indeed made by Titan-7. Especially if you see the "10000 ton" pressure quote! That's also their signature line LOL. But their sizing and colors are limited.

The TSW Neptune fit and have decent clearance. They make an 18 and 19 by 9.5 so take your pick. It's a great looking wheel!

I didn't buy the Neptune. I was only test fitting for community awareness. Being a +39 they are flush though. If availability of 19" tires doesn't return to normal I may be forced into 18" alternatives though. If that happens I'll snap some more shots.

[Miranda@Nemesis]

Personally, I think the Niche wheels look good.

New TT RS owner here. I ordered up a set of Apex SM-10 for winter, pics soon. I am looking for a set of nice wheels for warm weather. Two front runners are Volk TE37 Ultra M Spec 19x9.5 + 43 and BBS RI-A 18X9 +38. I will probably get the car out on track a few times over the years but mainly a street car, going to run P4S or ECS. Anybody running either of these specific wheels?

The ultra M in that spec need 3-5mm spacer to clear the front brakes.

The ria work bolt on for steel brakes. No info on CCB.

That's good information Paul, thanks. I actually emailed Eric and Kim replied. Do you have any pics of that spec TE37? I'm curious how concave they look. I love TE37 but not if they are flat. Same goes for the RI-A, too, didn't find any pics of that actual size.

Hello hello,

Just wanted to share my experience of getting wheels for the first time. My biggest pro tip would be to contact the wheel manufacturer directly (phone/email) as they seem to have specific cad drawings of your oem setup which helped me immensely with fitment and clearing my brake calipers.

I switched from my OEM rims (20x9.0 et 52) + Pirelli P Zero 255/30 ...to... BBS CI-R 20x8.5 et 42 Satin Bronze + Michelin PS4S 255/30 + H&R TRAK+ wheel spacers (10mm all around). The photos below dont portray the true satin bronze color of the rims since the photos are edited for fun, if you need a more color accurate representation, DM me on IG @sajittrs (https://www.instagram.com/sajittrs/?hl=en)

Hope this helps someone out there!

Apex SM10 VW Golf fitment (18x9 +42) fits great with plenty of clearance. Will be using these for winter tires. I had a great experience using their wheels on my M3 and the typical Neuspeed etc offerings didn't do much for me. They are just Taiwan flow formed wheels but brake clearance strength and weight seem to really strike a nice balance.

Update - pics on car. Tires are Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 245/40/18.

Hey all, had my TT RS for just a little over 1.5 years now and looking to get a new Summer setup for next year (currently on stock). For creature comfort, I'll be sticking with 19s but I a sucker for the deep concave look. Rims I'm thinking of going with the BC Forged RZ23s and Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. With lowering (maybe half a inch) on some MSS Springs, would a 19x10 with 265/35/R19 setup be too aggressive? Not sure on the offset either so any help from you lovely people would be greatly appreciated!

Might be misunderstanding your intent but this would not be the same stance as OEM. Keeping the same offset (I believe 43 is OEM) but increasing width will result in greater poke and less clearance by half the increase in width for each. In other words, with the same offset but an extra inch width rim, the inner clearance would be half inch less and outward poke half inch more.

Just installed some VMR 802s on my TTRS for the winter.
19x9.5 et 45 - 10mm spacers minimum are needed to clear the front rotors with 2mm of clearance. (pictured with 15mm as that is all I had at time of install) no spacers needed in the rear. Tires are 255/35-19
Suspension is H&R lowering springs with 034 front camber plates running as much negative camber as possible front and rear.

Even with 15mm spacers up front I am getting no rubbing which is surprising I have 10mm spacers on order as I really was hoping for a little less aggressive fitment for a winter setup. I bought these thinking I would only need 3mm spacers to clear the front rotors as I saw another person running these, but did not realize it was a TTS not an RS.

I currently have 18x8.5 wheels and 255/40/18 tires on the car and I want to be able to step up to some 275/35/18's on it or maaaybe even a 19 of overall equivalent size. What kind of offset will I need to gain the wheel width needed to stuff a tire that big under there? Is even more tire width available? I'm going to be making a rather sizable jump in power and I figured the 255's won't really cut it and a smidge more width might help mitigate some traction loss since I will be daily driving the car and still want to extract some of its power here and there.

Of note, I have KW HAS springs on the car that is fully lowered. I will be getting some camber plates and trying to get my alignment to -2.5 in the front and -1.5 in the rear.

8.5 is too narrow for 275. 9.5 +45 with 275 is much better and with plates up front will clear lowered no problem. Without plates it will be pretty close and could rub under certain conditions.

Also 275/35-18 will leave you with a little more gap to the fenders as it’s a slightly smaller overall diameter compared to the 255/40-18 you have on now

Would that gap be ideal for the sake of overall clearance? I'd really like to stuff as much tire as I can under this car as possible without rubbing or without having to modify anything in the fender wells or even the fenders themselves.

Mag wheels are on. Stoked! The ride quality is INCREDIBLE compared to the 20's. Tire noise is down 50-60% I'd estimate, if not more. Definitely quicker in all ways for acceleration and it launches more smoothly, likely due to the sidewall. I'm a happy camper!

[tt-ho]

Hmm would the Neuspeed RSE11R wheels on (18x9.5 et45) be fine with 285/35/18 tires? Ive seen some other TTRS running those but not sure if there any issues or adjustments required.

[Hollingsworth]

I was also looking into this size, and for an 18" it's the ideal size to keep as close as possible to the OEM diameter. 285 will put down a serious footprint and definitely give a badass stance. Remember though, depending on the brand, some 285's will be heavy if you are trying to shed unsprung weight, but the smaller, lighter 18" wheel will negate some of that.

However, to make it work there are a lot of factors to consider such as whether you are lowered, if you are running a lot of neg camber, and most of all you will need to choose your offset exactly right.

I decided instead not to risk it and went with a 265/35-19 on Neuspeed RSE102 wheels, et45.

While researching as to whether the 285 would fit, I seem to remember reading that our resident guru, Jeff Leske, had run this size on his track car, maybe on a TSW Interlagos wheel.

Anyway, I'll be curious to see if you can get it to work without rubbing. Good luck!

[Pootz]

Just installed some VMR 802s on my TTRS for the winter.
19x9.5 et 45 - 10mm spacers minimum are needed to clear the front rotors with 2mm of clearance. (pictured with 15mm as that is all I had at time of install) no spacers needed in the rear. Tires are 255/35-19
Suspension is H&R lowering springs with 034 front camber plates running as much negative camber as possible front and rear.

Even with 15mm spacers up front I am getting no rubbing which is surprising I have 10mm spacers on order as I really was hoping for a little less aggressive fitment for a winter setup. I bought these thinking I would only need 3mm spacers to clear the front rotors as I saw another person running these, but did not realize it was a TTS not an RS.

[jorgeecolina]

After reading all this thread I’m still confused with all the parameter to keep in mind when changing wheels and tires.

Here is my situation, I’m switching from OEM wheels (20x9 ET52) to Wedssport TC105x 18x9.5 ET45 (Thanks to Paul Gi from Supreme Power)

Now the most difficult part of the process is getting the right size of tires to achieve the look I want.

I’m 99% sure I’m going with 275/35R18 (Falken RT660 or Hankook Ventus RS4).

I really don’t want to mess with negative camber cause honestly I don’t like the look of it.

I’m waiting on the wheels and tires to arrive to install the coilovers so I can get some flexibility with height to achieve the “motorsport look” / meaty tire I want.

This is a picture for reference.

Any suggestions from all the experts in this topic?

Thanks in advance. 277265

Anybody familiar with RRT Forged wheels? Came across their RRT-Ultra series which will only weigh 14.5lbs in an 18x9. Just bought some Wedssport TC105Xs but these are just too tempting. They remind me of my BC Forged RS-41s but much lighter.

Those are nice but man, $1100 per wheel for an 18x9 is rough. I think I got my entire WedsSport TC105X set for like $22-2300? But it seems prices went up a bit.

Yeah they’re definitely not cheap but you have to consider what you’re getting. The Wedssports are not forged. They have a forged set, but not for that price. The forged version costs about $850/wheel and they weigh a little more than the cast version I believe.

I paid $2365 for my TC105Xs (16lbs) and I paid $4500 for my BC Forged (24lbs) if I remember correctly.

To compare, you can get some custom Augment forged magnesium wheels that will weigh around 14lbs, but those cost about $1500/wheel.

You can get Litespeed Racing RS5RR forged magnesium wheels that weigh 15lbs but those cost $2000/wheel.

Another good comparison is the BBS FI-R. They have a chart that gave me this data. Looks like a 19x9.5 FI-R would weigh 16.94lbs compared to 16.31lbs, but the BBSs also cost $2500-$3000 per wheel.

The only other way I know to achieve this kind of weight is to drop down to some tiny beadlocks. You can get a set of Belaks in 15x8 for about $5000 shipped and those weigh 13lbs. But then you need to run tiny brakes and you need to modify the suspension to make them fit properly.

I've had some forged wheels in the past and I've researched those brands/materials before. So the cost of those wheels don't surprise me. I'm at a point where I see things from a bang-for-the-buck perspective. Otherwise, I would have just bought an R8 and boosted it. Haha.

Just picked up some Wedssport TC105X in 18x8.5 myself. I would have gone 18x9.5 but wanted to go as light as possible and need them to fit some Hoosier DR2 245/40 tires. Mine are 16lbs and the 9.5” wide wheels are almost 18lbs I think.

I’m currently running BC Forged HCA162 wheels that are 19x9.5 ET45 with 265/35 Michelin PSS. The fitment with this setup is pretty much perfect. The Wedssport setup is mainly for racing but I’ll probably end up driving them on the street a little bit. Once my new setup is delivered I’m going to most likely sell the current setup and get a lightweight street setup. If I go the cheap route I’ll get TSW Kemoras but if I go the expensive route I’ll get RRT Forged Ultra wheels which weigh 15lbs or less.

Do you think 19 is good enough for pothole resistance and comfort?

I think it’s a pretty good balance personally, but I live in SoCal and rarely see potholes. I felt fairly comfortable in downtown Chicago as well when I lived there. It was definitely a big improvement over the stock Pirellis and I think it’s fine in 99% of situations. You get a good amount of meat on your tire with these specs.

That's pretty nice and meaty.
18s would be a lot cheaper in terms of tires, especially with the value prop of the ZTF-01, but maybe the visual aspect is worth the extra ~$1000.

Easiest is to just go with stock pressures. But I’ve been having traction issues since going stage 2 so I’ve been experimenting with lower pressures to get better grip, but then you get less miles out of your tires. What are you going for?

Yeah, with that extra diameter there’s no way you’re fitting 18s. This is what this setup looks like without the 2mm spacers.

Sorry to say but those aren’t going to be 17lbs but rather more like 24-25lbs since they’re 2 piece wheels. I specifically bought the lightest wheel that they make (RS41) in an 18x9 and those still weighed 18lbs. I have the HCA162 wheels in 19x9.5 ET45 which weigh 24lbs and those would presumably weigh a little less than yours having 4 less spokes. The difference you’re feeling is most likely from just having more sidewall.

Dang, thanks for posting. AP's were on my short list, so may have to scrap those or look for different wheels.

[Mooseman]

After 4k miles with these 18" ZTF-01 + 265/40/18 PS4 A/S I think they're pretty sweet.
Handling is great, comfort is definitely better than the stock P Zeros, though I only drove on those for about 1000 miles and barely remember what it was like.

Might go for summers my next go around, but the performance these all seasons give me is pretty great and I haven't felt the need for more grip yet.

Hey there - what are these wheel specs if you don't mind - I'd like to run the same size tire and the wheel guys are saying that the 265s need 35 profiles to fit even though the 40s are CLOSER in OD (+1%) than the 35s (-3%) - I'm thinking these would be fine on 18x9 et42,
even on H&R sport springs ...

[jl87]

Those are 034s wheels, 18x9.3" +42. 265/35 is short compared to the OEM 20" I had this size on my rs3 and tried it on my TTRS (stock height) and it looked ridiculous. I think it's like 25.3" diameter vs 26.1" of the stock setup.

I suppose that's all perspective. I ended up with 255/35/18's on my TT RS, coming from 255/40/18's which were the same height as the OEM tires (255/30/20). It's an inch shorter in overall tire height but, I still think it looks good on the car.

Are you on stock suspension? The shorter tire can look ok if the car is lowered, but yes, I suppose it's personal preference. Post a side shot of it if you don't mind.
Here's my winter setup for reference, it's 225/45/18, so 25.9" vs stock of 26.1"

https://i.imgur.com/LrK76Mn.jpg

[DrMerl]

Yeah stock ride height on 18's looks a little off, but fits great with springs. 265/35s read two MPH higher than actual, it's just within allowable tolerance. Besides the hit of extra "mileage" the slightly shorting gearing can be beneficial.

I don't really have any profile pics of the car (I don't think that's a flattering angle on these). But, I do have a shot where you can see the wheel well gap. I'm on KW HAS springs. I added a second image from the rear quarter area at a higher angle. Excuse all of the Corvette stuff up in my Garage and the E85 cans. But, I just came from a C7 Z06 and will likely have another Corvette soon so, I didn't bother to take that down.

18 x 9.3 et42 isn't that far off from 18 x 9 et42. Not sure why they're saying that, maybe they don't want to be held liable if you ever decide to lower and it starts rubbing?
It's also possible that the tires you're planning to get run a little big, what you see on mine are All Season tires, so maybe summers run bigger, I dunno.

I would personally just go for the 265/40, 0 speedometer error and a nice cushion for ride comfort. Acceleration from a dig is also improved since it can flex a bit more.

Just had my OEM wheels redone in chrome black and added new 275 30 20 Nitto 555 G2's and it turned out exactly the way I wanted it. I am lowered on H&R sport springs and have no rubbing issues. I might add a 5 mm spacer on the rear but I think that would be as much as I will be able to go without rubbing. I tried 10mm spacers all the way around and it was too much on the front (tire stuck out) and was super flush on the rear. Pics shown are without any spacers.

Thanks Paul. I have done gloss black before on my RS4 and found it hides the definition of the wheels. I wanted the black color but wanted the definition to still be there this time. The chrome definitely gives me that effect I was looking for.

Hey Mooseman,
Are you still running 37F 34R pressures on your 265/40R18s? I have a set of Continental Extreme Contact Sport 2s in that size on 034 ZTF-1 18x9.3 wheels and there is no way to use the older Discount Tire chart to figure out a good pressure with these at 101Y load rating versus 92Y or 93Y for the OEM offerings. These are my HPDE setup while I run AS4 255/40R18s on Neuspeed RSE-10 18x9s for the street. I typically run 35lbs. all around but am hoping someone has more miles to report their results. I only got my car a few months ago and have no real miles to discern the ideal PSI. Any advice that anyone might offer would be greatly appreciated. Brew

It's a minimal sidewall change (1/2" overall so only 1/4" extra sidewall for ride) so minimal speedo difference.

https://tiresize.com/comparison/

It is much wider obviously which presents two issues. First it is wider than recommended for a 9" width wheel. Second I run a 265/35/19 witch is almost identical in overall height to the 275/30/20 but is .4" smaller in width. I run a ET45 but you're planned setup still sticks out slightly further than mine.

https://tiresize.com/wheel-offset-calculator/

With my current setup on factory suspension I have some light rubbing with a passenger and some light cargo in the back. I also damaged my RT fender (small tear in the aluminum near the bumper) in the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca. That's a very specific condition and have not replicated it on any other tracks so far but several other folks on here have reported the same damage from other conditions with similar tire setups.

Hopefully some folk who run those sizes or have run them can give first hand info but on paper it doesn't seem likely to be a good fit.

I run different pressures for different things.

Drag Racing: 28 - 30 all around
Street: 37F 35R
Track: 33

Pressures you run also can depend on your suspension setup, if you want more sensation in the rear then you may want to lower the pressure if you don't have a sway bar.

[Brew1961]

Thanks for the reply, Mooseman! What tires are you running at these pressures...PS AS4s? I'm trying to correlate the 101Y load index of my Continentals to whatever you're running. Thanks in advance. Brew

I'm one of the people that went to a 275 on OEM wheels thanks to others in this thread. Along with a little more sidewall, it was the easiest way to get a good all seasons at a reasonable price (I went with AS4 that have been good). The only rubbing I've encountered has been highly infrequently at full/near full lock, which is exactly the expectation that was set for me when looking into going to that size. Speed difference is roughly 1.5 mph higher at 80mph, so not too big of a concern for me at least.

[willisdavid090]

Hey everyone Im new to the Audi world. Ive always had vettes before so I need some help. I just got a 2019 TTRS and it desperately needs better wheels and tires. I got it from idaho and looks like it was traded in with a winter setup.
I live in San Diego and do some very aggressive driving. Im looking at Neuspeed RSe11R 18x9.5 et 45 with Nitto NT05 285/35 tires. Any thoughts if this will work? Or other suggestions? I value any input at all. Maybe just hit up paul@supreme power? Seems to know a lot.

[DrMerl]

285's might be a little much if you don't have any extra camber. I want to go to 275/35's to get the speedo just about 1% off but be a tad shorter in diameter than stock. I've got a few degrees extra camber on the front using 034 Camster shock hats. Currently using 265/35's on ZTF-01 18x9.3 forged rims, this size is a bit smaller in diameter and has a 2MPH speedo diff vs GPS. Shorter gearing can help but not against odometer reading. If you don't go with a Conti tire it'll likely be fairly heavy against other brands. Less unsprung weight is always good. Wider tire can yield more tram-lining. I'd suggest getting the other suspension bits in order for wide sneakers.

Thanks for the input! I should have mentioned that I planned on using the 034 camber plates with this setup. What is the OEM wheel diameter? I thought it was 26" from what I've seen in the threads.

Sorry all for double replying but I just had my coffee and realized I missed a major point from DrMerl! Again I live in San Diego. I use to run the machine shop at HRE wheels for a few years so I'm very familiar with the advantages of unsprung rotational mass. Yet I have never maximized it by considering in tire weight! I don't want to change the topic of this thread. Is there another thread here someone can point me too that compares tire weights and performance?

[DrMerl]

This is a great resource to check out tire weights and rotation sizes.
https://tiresize.com/tires/Audi/TTS/2019/Coupe/

Go for the Camster plates so you get both caster and camber, extra caster makes a great difference in driving feel.

I have 18x9 BBS RI-A with 255/40/18 PS4S. Fit great and I prefer the extra sidewall cushion with Wisconsin roads. They've held up to some serious pothole hits with no bending. Not fully in love with silver on Nardo but I think it'll look better once I get the silver trim converted to black optic. They have some nice color options but I was buying before a price increase and there was limited stateside stock.
