    My wheels will be coming next week from Cali. Like i said ET42 i want the tire to be almost flush with the fender, about how thick a spacer would i need to accomplish this. Im getting everything together so i can test fit everything and ill take pics.

    Picked up the LE RS4 reps from Alloyrus yesterdat, Thanks to Matt for answering all my questions

    so where are my wheels going to sit in regards to the fenders, is the smaller the number the further out they are, or vice versa.

    Yes the smaller the number the further out they will be so at Et42 you will be sunken in a bit depending on how wide they are as well.

    yup, smaller the number, the more they poke out
    For the front, I wouldnt go anymore then a 35mm offset, and the rear, you can max it out to a 27mm offset.
    im running 27mm offset in the back, with 235/40-18 tires no problems, no rubbing.
    but if you feel in between the tire, and back fender. its ridiculously close!!!!!! the gap is maybe like 2 nickels stack on eachother.
    everyone who feels my rear is like "what the hell?!?!"

    I have an +27mm offset on the front wheels and its a thing of beauty.

    On the rear is a +35mm offset and it looks just fine .... although, an extra 2-3mm wouldnt hurt
