What tire size on a B6 Stock height Offset 38 RS4 Reps?

**StillclaimngDP** · 10-07-2008 09:18 AM

As the title asks, I have been recommended 235/35/19, can I go 245/35/19 or 255/35/19 on my B6, stock height, Offset 38, RS4 Replicas? Thanks!

I have 245 30 20 all around on mine with no issues other than looking too sexy

Rubbing shouldn't be an issue at stock height ... Do you care about weight ? The wider tires will look good but will affect performance. My 235's (on 19 X 8.5 Volks) are known to be narrower than some and would suggest getting 245's ...

i had 235/35/19s on et 38 rs-gts and at stock height I had no problems. I just put on coils and they rub since my car is way to low... As long as you dont want to tuck tire you'll be fine with coils if you ever want them in the future.

Cool thanks guys, I went with Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS pole positions in 235/35/19 mounted on Onyx Black RS4 replicas, hopefully I will have some pictures up tomorrow (car is a black B6 S4 sedan). Anyone know if that tires would handle better than the Sumitomo HTR Z III? They are selling those for only 155/tire on tirerack right now vs. 218/tire for the Bridgestone...

The PP's you have are an all-season tire, and will probably perform better in wet and inclement weather vs the summer tires.

Cool, that makes me feel better about spending the extra dough, here they are: 19" Onyx Black RS4 Replicas from Modbargains.com, went with 235/35/19 but wish I had either gone 245/35/19 or a different tire because they are barely making it to the edge of the wheel, looks really cheap to me, now I have I have to lower it or something, compare with the 32 offset A5 Sline Wheel in the last 2 photos:

BEFORE (Rubbed on all hard bumps, 32 offset with a 255/35/19 Sport Maxx Dunlop tire):

+1 you were right, wish I had gotten 245 =\
