    Any issues running 275/40/20 on the S7?

    I'm thinking about running a 20x10 et25 BBS CX-R currently mounted with Conti DWS-06 in 275/40/20. These are on my wife's Q5. These aren't the best winter solution but I'll give it try. Does anyone have any experience with this set up? Any rubbing or fitment issues?

    Good to hear . I have a set of Dunlop wintersport 3ds on her stock 19's, so I'll try the fitment when we switch over to the winter set.

    275/35/20 would fit, but the 40 sidewall is most likely going to rub given you have an aggressive offset. You might be able to get away with it if you raise the suspension all the way up.

    I still rub under hard compression sometimes on my summer setup on a wheel with same offest (285/35/20 Hankook RS3) in auto and dynamic modes, but never rub when I have the suspension in raised mode
