Its been a ****** long time since ive been proper active on here but this is where it all started!:rock:

Ive got a A3 tdi sline and thinking of changing my wheels but dont know if et33 will be out to much, anyone know if they will work?

If you're sticking with a 7.5J rim then that's pushing it a bit - not sure what you're current set up is but assuming it's ET51 then the ET33 wheels will stick out a further 18mm. Comparing that with the fact that people tend to go for between 10-15mm spacers then that sounds a bit extreme.

If you're looking at going wider at 8J then it's going to look 'interesting' as you'll have 24.4mm of extra poke!

Any pics of what you have and what you're leaning towards ?

Exactly what I was thinking with regards to the 'norm' being 10-15mm spacers so ill pass on them wheels then. Some of the old skool on here will remember im a sucker for a 5 spoke wheel, just love the simple look and was looking at the Vossen cv3's
