Need help with 18x9.5 wheel sizing on A6 4.2

[jxaxexgxexr]

I am looking at putting on the Mandrus emil's in an 18x9.5 on my 4.2. Stock sport size is 17x8 et35 and many recommend an 18x8.5 et30 but I bolted up an RS4 rep in that size last week and it still looked sunken in.

If I run an 18x9.5 am I better off with an et25 or et35 offset?

Closest I've found is this S6 with 19x9.5 emil's. Not sure what offset he's running though.

hey it looks like that S6 is in front of Shoreline Motorsports by my house!
