19" +45 wheels need spacers?

[audiman27]

I just ordered some 19" wheels that are 8" wide and have +45 offset. I was told I might need spacers to clear the brakes. If so, anyone know how thick and do I need them all around? I'm planning on running 235/35/19 on 02 sport suspension, hopefully no rub!

What kind of brakes are you running? +45 is really sunken in for a 8.0" wheel. People usually do 19x8.0 +35.

Brakes are stock. It's a 02 A4. If I do a 10mm spacer, that would bring it to +35?

You should run 15mm spacers, it all depends on how sunkin you want to be, those +45's will be sunk like a battle ship! I run 19x8.5 +35 with 8mm spacers. Perfect!!!

why would your order wheels knowing that they may not fit properly?

I was going to order 18 x 8.5 ET35 wheels, then I decided to go to the 19" wheel instead, thinking the offset was the same. Like an idiot I didn't read the entire listing. I just want to maintain the factory poke. So 15mm spacers would be good?
