    Any B6 S4 running 20" RS5 Rotors...?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Seen some neat B7 RS4 rocking the RS5 specs Rotors in 20x9" ET 26.
    Anyone running these on a B6 S4..?
    I know the 30 profile is thin. I don't plan to track the car & the roads in Dubai are Grade A smooth....

    I have a S5 specs 19x9"" ET 33 on my RS4 with 25 & 33 mm H&R spacers. Have a 20"x9"" Set sitting around. Might try it on my Imola S4.

    Although it's been done before(20s I mean), imho 20s is a bit too much for a B6 body. I'll see if could dig up some pix.

    Forget the B8, keep the V8!
    Buying a used B6/7 S4 is like playing Russian roulette...

    Considering the B6 & B7 have almost the same proportions. Bar the widebody.



    This is on 255-30-20



    Most of the guys running them on B7 RS4 use spacers. I recon the B6 with is not so widebody can run the 255-30-20 profile. But will not require any spacers. Trying to get a spare tire in that size to do a test fitment.

    You can definitely do it. It's just a matter of getting them to fit in your fenders.

    This guy put 20's on his B7 S4 no problem. Overall ET of 36

    Wanna send me your current ABT wheels once you put the RS5 rotors on the imola?

    Just my opinion, but I think anything over 19" on the B6/B7 looks out of place. It works for the RS4 because of the wide body, but not for ours. I also prefer having a bit more meat on the tires for comfort. City driving sucks on 19's.

    It's a shame that they don't fit.

    But, I do think the 20s look too big for the chassis.

    Who says they dont fit...? I could easily make it work by rolling the fenders.

    Ideally if i ran 225-30-20. The stretch would be good enough for clearance. But thats not practical.'In any case i prefer POKE to TUCK

    Unfortunately the load index on those tires wont work..... if you lower the car looks to be the ideal fitment. ET 35 is perfect flush fitment with a 9 inch wide wheel. Maybe a little camber would help you too! I'm running ET 37 up front 19x9 wheels slammed static with 235 tires and no issues at all.

    I love the look of Rotors on the B6 S4 more than on a B7. Just picked up a B6 and these are my go to rim choice... in 19' of course. Looks crispy on your imola BTW samaj.

    Yeah, lowering it will draw them in towards the fenders more and with a roll, it'll certainly be achievable with a tad bit of camber

    Scrapped the idea of 20". The 30 profile would be too thin.
    So for the time being swapped the 19x9" ET 33 Rotors from my B5 RS4 onto these. No spacers & no rubbing on 235-35-19. Ride quality is as good as the 18". I would even say the drive feel is better.
