    19x9 on B7 A4

    Hi guys,



    I have decided on buying new wheels for my B7 A4. I am interested in 19x9 Forgestar F14 in gunmetal for a bit more concavity. I already bought tires, Hankook V12 235/35/19 ready to be mounted.
    I would like to know what is the optimal offset that I can run on a B7 A4 Avant? I am lowered on Stasis SS, and am just looking for a clean, flush look without any rubbing. I just need the offset, so I can place my order!

    I have searched the forums and googled and could not find much information. Thanks!


    This is my previous set up on 19x8.5.

    What was your tire size and offset on your previous setup? If you liked the amount of poke on your last setup, I can tell you exactly what offset you need to have the same poke as last time.

    EDIT: FYI 19x8.5 et32 is equal to 19x9 et38

    Thanks for the reply. 8.5 ET32 was pretty good previously, could go a bit more, but probably pushing it, dont want to deal with the hassle. I assume 235/35 will be a pretty safe size to go with?

    235/35 would be fine at that offset. you could probably push it out slightly more without any issues. i run 19x9 et29 with 225/35 and 235/35 winter tires.. slight rubbing on hard corner and huge dips with the meatier winter tires.

    I run 235/35's on 9's and it's just about perfect. Some stretch but still functional. I run et 41 with 8mm spacers in the pack and 5mm in the front. It sits pretty flush. I might poke them a bit more once I get my coils on.

    Chase also forgot to mention that his current suspension setup is for sale. If you want this stance, hit him up.

    Edit: Nevermind, it sold about 2 hours ago.

    Do you guys think 9" wide wheels would work with 245/35/19's, or 245/40/18's on OEM sport suspension? What sort of offset would I have to run?

    Yup, on sport susp both would probably work just fine but 245/35 will look a lot better. Anywhere between et 35 and 45 would be a safe fitment that's around flush.

    Thanks for the replies all. So I take it ET37/38 would be the offset to order?
