    Brake caliper clearance?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    BBS CK Rims off a B6 A4 19x8.5 35 offset will be able to fit on a B7 S4? Is the brake clearance determined by the offset? I'm pretty sure 35 offset fits the B7 S4? Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated.

    19x8.5 35 is a good fit for 6/B7 S4's. It's the moste popular offset.

    it should fit but depending on the spoke design it may not. I have seen a couple BBS 35mm offset wheels with recessed spoke design that do not clear the brake calipers without a small spacer (3-5mm). I am not farmiliar with the CK. Call and ask tirerack if the BBS CK fits the S4 and you should be set to go. Better safe than sorry. If tirerack give it a go, you should be in the clear. The B6 A4 has 288mm (IIRC) brakes with smaller calipers.
