ok guys, this is a killer for me. im trying to fins some rims that fit the rears of my RS4S, since the stock r34gtt rims wont fit without 20mm spacers, and the r32gtr rims have the same story.

one is 7.5 +38 for the gtt rims and the 32gtr are 8 with +30 offset.

i found some nice rims im trying to get which are 17x9, and im wondering what the best offset for the rears will be

i can get them from -25 to +15 in 5mm intervals.

is -25 too much?

when i ran the r34gtt rims with my 30mm spacer, i still had another 3cm to fill in the guards on the outside of the rim.

at the moment im just in need for some rear rims.

Don't they need to be the same all around to make sure all four wheels have the same rolling diameter? In answer to your question I think you'd be after about +15. Mine (pics above) are 18x9.5 +15

i have same rolling diameter all round, 17" gtt fronts and rears but want to replace the rears so i dont need to use the spacers.

im going to opt for deep dish steelies 17x9 i just need to know the best offset.

as 16x8 +30 doesnt fit and 17x7.5 +38 didnt fit.

i did try 17x8 with a +0 and that filled the guards very well

just thought that 8j is too thin for my liking plus they were only lend rims.

so yours is a rs4s?

ok quick question, quite urgent, i have a RS4 auto, sitting at 340mm, wondering wats the best size rims to go, widest offset possible. with a 18x9/9.5 rim. so +30 the best or will a +10/15 fit? need to fit both front and rears. thanks

nah, dont care for the front of yet, just trying to sort out the ass. im having heaps of trouble finding decent offset rims, so im getting custom steelies made :D

What's the cost on those?

if i have the centre piece its 150 per rim. but found a set of 17x9 +5 so i might buy them.

i hope my calculations were correct. i ran 17x9+38 on the rear, with 35mm spacers, so they technically were 17x9 +3?

they had a perfect offset

Hmmmm, might have to get new others for my watanabe wheels :-) and put my 17x8's on the front and make the 7's into 9's (stagea is going so the r31 will probably see a bit if love)

Looks awesome, what brand of rim are they? what size tyre and did you need coiovers to fit them at rear?, all he rims i have been looking at are 17,18 x9 +28

cheers

darren

they are work emotion CR KAI's, been lowered to 340mm, with camber. just misses rear guard by mm when bounced (without folding over lip), nd have about 3 cm still to go before hits strut. coilovers help. nd running a 245/45 tyre on it. thats when using the Auto wider rear cradle.

Edited by import_zone

been looking through this thread for ages and still not sure if the wheels I'm looking at will fit.

wheels I'm looking at are 18 x 9.5 + 20 and going onto a s2 rs4v (auto)

from what i can find the fronts should be alright with rolled guards

anyone know how the rear will be with the wider rear track of the auto?

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
