    don't think 315 at the front would be too healthy ...

    looking great so far.
    max in the rear would be 11"et25 with a 305. same in the front but your max turning radius will suffer.

    cheers, the RS5 hubs are thicker then S5 so the offset would have to be different ...

    295/30/20 increases the diameter vs stock, how accurate is your speedo if you don't mind me asking?
    305, what offset?
    the minimum will be 305 but has to work when very low, as this my be the track only setup, so semi or slicks have to be available in that size ...

    happy with 275 at the front but thinking of 255-265, understeer not necessary, if you setup your suspension properly, R8 runs staggered as stock ...

    295/30 vs 275/30 is less than a 2% increase in overall diameter, the speedometer for the most part is still pretty accurate.

    The Veyron comment on might part was a joke, you can't compare the RS5 with the massive engine way out front to an R8 or a Veyron... Of course those cars run staggered setups but they won't understeer like ours because the engine won't be pulling the car off of the proper line through the corners. Understeer really only occurs when the front tires lose grip before the backs do, putting on smaller tires in the front (relative to the back) won't help that.

    think I'm done with the exhaust, unless something brakes, the initial sound in combination with the SC wine is just awesome , best I've had so far, mind due the Kline setup is bigger in diameter 2.75" vs 2.5" stock, clips to follow when sound settles in ...
