I just put bilsteins and H&R race springs on my 00 S4 and I also picked up a set of B6 S4 wheels.. tried mounting them and they hit the front brakes.. what spacers are people running? and also keep in mind the tires are still the 235 40 18's.... please help and should i run spacers on the rears for handling purposes??

    I'm running H&R 8mm, they were the best deal aside from the 5mm, I wanted to make sure they would clear. I would throw some in the rear just to balance the look out a little
    GIAC Stage 2+ and some other stuff...

    I have the RS6 OEM 18s which have same size tire and I believe offset is the same (+35?). I run 10mm infront and 25mm in back both HR Trak+ spacers.



    I like the way it stands. Shaved my front fenders and backs don't rub at all. Both front and back have negative camber, don't know the percentage though. On Stasis Streetsports.

    I'm running 8 mm all the way around. 225/40/18. No rubbing, dropped on Vogtland GT's. If you are going to run the 235's, and have an agressive drop, you will have to roll your fenders, otherwise you will rub. Do a search, this has def been covered recently.
