    Thinking of going with m580 staggered on my B7 Avant

    Thinking of the satin silver on my dolphin grey b7 avant. only on Koni FSD/Eibach Pro. Like the concavity of the 9.5 width wheel and wish I could get a square setup but don't want to pull fenders. I value opinions here. Per Jason from Get Your Wheels, thinking of 19x8.5 235/35/19 on front and 19x9.5 265x30x19 rear.
    I understand that tire rotation must be <3%, which it would be. and I would introduce more understeer (not a big deal for me)

    Would this setup look good on my Koni FSD/Eibach Pro setup?

    Thanks

    Hmmm 265 on a B7, really? That sounds crazy. Possible rubbing issues aside, I don't think you're going to like the look (I know I wouldnt).

    I would go for a square set-up all day. That's what you really want. You can go 19x9.5 with an offset beteen et35-40 with 235/35/19 without any issues at your ride height.

    My summer setup is the OEM S5 Peelers 19x9 et33 with 235/35/19 Continental Extreme Contact DWS. I'm pretty low on coils at just above 24" FTG and only rubbed in the front if I was doing a hard u-turn. If you went with 19x9.5 et40 you would be at the same flushness as my set-up because the 9.5 wheel is a total of 12.7mm wider than my 9 and therefore the et40 would sit at the same flushness as my et33.

    yep, he said 265, but that seems super wide can't see how that wouldn't rub. I have read that with the 9.5 580's I would need a 5mm spacer to clear front brakes...That then puts me out at et35,which is further out than you. So not as low as you but still...argh
