Looks perfect since I can adjust the measurements and I don't plan on going so low would 20x9.5 +25 still work with 275?

That’s pushing it a bit. You could make it work. Mostly depends on the tire model. You could go ET27 to be 100% good

Got it! So what would be ideal for looking more concave and I'll be using the stock 265s
20x9 +23
Or
20x9.5 +27
Thanks again mops

For sure!

The 9.5 will only have 2mm more concave. So either will be great.

Posting up the latest and greatest from VMR... the V807 in Anthracite Metallic. Specs are 19x9.5" ET35 on all four corners, running 255/35 Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS tires. Stock suspension setup for now.

[jtbss4]

they look awesome, with 9.5 on 255... you dont get much stretch? also.. did you ceramic coat the wheels, cause cleaning looks like a nightmare haha

[Chodan]

Hello, I am currently running 9J ET37 wheels with 265/30/20 tires on my 2022 S4.
I have the stock suspension setup, and there is no rubbing at the moment.
I am considering switching to RS5’s 9J ET22 20-inch wheels with the same tires, and I believe it should be fine.
However, could there be any rubbing issues?
Does anyone have experience with this?

With the 265, you'll 100% rub often and poke quite a lot. Even with 255. I can only see you being rub free with 245, and they'll still poke out a bit I would not recommend this. Here is 20x9 ET25 on 245 and it's tight -

[Chodan]

Is the car in this photo on stock suspension?
I’d like to show you the current state of my car, but I’m not sure how to upload a photo.

[Chodan]

It looks like the suspension on this car is lower than mine.

[Mops@Nemesis]

Yep, this car is lowered with camber adjustments. Meaning the wheels will poke out further on your car. The only way this works is with 245. And you can run a 245/35, not a 245/30. So you'll have a nice tall sidewall.

Thank you for the explanation. These photos are the current state of my S4. So, even with just an 18mm offset change, there will be rubbing and poking, right? Lastly, I’d appreciate it if you could check the condition one more time.

With the 15mm offset variance, you're going to poke quite a lot. You're almost flush currently. I'd say if you added a 3mm spacer to the current, you'd be spot-on flush. So the new wheel will poke out ~12mm. That said, your S4 sits quite high. So you may not experience rubbing, short of rear rub if you were to have rear passengers. But they poke will be quite apparent.

Great looking S4.

Thank you for the detailed and kind explanation and estimation. I will make my decision based on your advice.

RS5 SB Peak wheels with 275/30 tires. Not as bad as I thought it would be for poking.

Do the RS5 and RS4 have the same wheel well space as the S5 and S4?

Will the shape look similar to the pictures you’ve provided, even on the S models?

lol I just thought it’s RS5

Are these also ET22 20-inch wheels?
What tire size are they using, and is there any rubbing between the fender and the tire?

Yes, et22, 275/30/20 factory tires. There was tiny bit of rubbing in the rear on a hard dip.

Thanks for the information.
It seems like there’s no rubbing in normal driving conditions.
I’ll carefully consider everyone’s opinions and make the best decision.
Thank you all!

Possibly. I just bought them today and threw them on. Only driven about 20 miles total. But, didn’t really rub too much. I’m sure with narrower tires it would be better. Or the coupe versions.

Great!
I hope 265 tires make no rubbing

I had some 285/30 R20's on at one point and rubbed pretty bad in the rear with a single passenger in the front seat on bumps and sharper corners. This was on factory suspension. Curious to see if the 275's rub or not.

Question for MOPS (or others who know about this)

2020 B9.5 S4 OEM black optic Wheels. 19x8.5 255/35 PS4AS, lowered on EMD, with 10mm spacers. Its pretty flush to my eyes.

Looking into the new VMR V805 - debating on what is optimal? 19x8.5 et35 (no spacers) or 19x8.5 et43 (with the existing 10mm spacer)

Isnt is optimal to not have to use spacers? So i should be looking for the right offset to achieve that? I'm hesitant to go with a wider wheel because i dont want to have to size up to 265 tires. I'd want to stick with 255.

Aftermarket wheels very often do not play well with 10mm spacers. I would do the 8.5 ET35 with 5mm spacers. You'll have the exact same fitment you have now.

You can also do the 19x9.5 ET35 with no spacers and your 255/35. Very common fitment. Here is mine with 9.5" and the 255 Pilot AS -



I can provide the wheels. 👍🏼

Hi Guys,

First post and straight on with a big please help...

I have been trying to figure this out myself but would love someone more knowledgeable to confirm it for me, and there seems to be a wealth of knowledge on here where fitment is concerned.

I have a 2017 B9 S4 Avant with stock suspension and no spacers (Currently running S5 19 inch alloys using 255/35 tyres)

I have managed to get hold of some B9 RS5 Trapezoid/Polygon (not sure what they are called to be honest) 20 x 9 wheels (ET34) OEM part number 8W0.601.025.EQ.

And I'm hoping to run a 255/35 tyre if possible to retain the ride comfort and help reduce damage to the wheels from the terrible roads.

Looking at the many pages of posters I'm thinking that this should be fine and is within the tolerance of the car and would be only slightly out for Speedo error.

Am I correct or is this a bad idea....

Thanks in advance.

[Mops@Nemesis]

Hi Guys,

First post and straight on with a big please help...

That will work completely fine. 20x9 ET34 on 255 is very much a common fitment. 👍🏼

I sold the exact wheel from my S5 to an S4 here on the forum and he's running 265.

Thanks for the Quick reply Mops, much appreciated 👍

All I need to do now is figure out what colour and finish to have them refurbished in.... will get photos posted when it's all done.

Ok thanks for the info. question about that 255 on the 9.5... in the photo.. is that "stretched" or almost? my preference would be for the wheel to not poke out from the tire as much. So because of that, should i be sticking with the 8.5/255?

That's a very light stretch. The wheel doesn't poke out from the tire, but the tire does slightly fall inward from the wheels rim. But yeah, sounds like the 8.5 will for sure suit you best. I would do the 8.5 ET35 with 5mm spacers. 5mm spacers are 100% issue free. I can assist with the spacers as well.

Sorry for the late reply… there was hardly any stretch. I sold my car a week after posting this, so the wheels never got dirty! they’re for sale if interested.

This is perfect! I'm thinking to run same spec wheels, but I thought j9,5 et35 on stock suspension would stick out of arches. But Your's look perfect, does it sit flush? Is Your camber adjusted? Do You have a picture showing how flush it sits?

It was on stock suspension and no camber adjustments were required to fit them. However, I actually sold the car a few weeks ago and held onto the wheels so they’re now for sale.

Below is another pic I had from when they were on the car, though the third pic in my original post really shows how flush they sat - it was pretty perfect. Let me know if you’re interested!

Thanks for the replay! Unfortunately I've already placed an order on same spec Dotz Suzuka, which is a similar wheel. Anyways, I'm from Europe-Latvia, so the shipping from Nashville would probably cost half of the wheel price I still have to decide on tires... Running 255/35 have You experienced any rubbing? Is it possible to rub on 255/35's?

No problem. I did not experience any rubbing on a 255/35 tire at all. 265 is actually the ideal width for a 9.5” wheel so the 255 does stretch just a bit.
