Spacers

[Wilbur]

I searched and searched but couldnt find an answer. I am putting my CV3s back on soon and need to know what i can run for spacers..19x8.5 et 45. What is original sline 19x8.5 7 spoke et? Cant see it on car with winters. Thanks.

I run an 8.5" wide wheel at et 35 front and et 30 back on stock sport suspension and it's pretty flush (so that would be 10/15 spacers for you)

OEM Audi wheels are 19x8.5 et43. you can run 5/10 front/rear or 10/15 if you want to go a bit more aggressive, but depends how low you are and if you're tires are 255 or more they might rub on the fender liner, 245s might work, and 235s should definitely be good.

So et30 is the max/flush? Thanks for your help.

well i wouldnt say that's the max, there are people with 9-10" wide wheels with the offset effectively lower, but you'd have to make sure your tires are stretched enough to not rub, adjust camber, have stiff coils, etc. but yea et30 on an 8.5 would be a good max/flush for a practical look where you dont have to worry about the rubbing and all that, but still have a nice flush look, without doing it too much and poking.

Perfect. Thanks very much for your help.

I run 19x8.5 ET35 square, with 10mm spacers in the front and 8mm in the rear with no problems

[Need4Speed]

on the ground force wheel line i typically run a 19x9.5 + 35

now for a flush fitment on a 19x8.5 CV3 I would say push it out to 30 mm

As for spacers I would recommend H&R spacers only ( made in Germany ) amazing quality

^thanks. My OE wheels are et43 ( 7 spoke 19x8.5) . I have 10mm spacers on with winters and they seem pretty flush. I found a guy at lunch that will let me try 15. H&R makes a 12 too. Thanks for your help.

Measure the distance from the sidewall to your inner fender lip, and go from there. :thumbsup:

Got it, thanks.
