S4 tyre sizes!

[adamk90]

Has any used 235/35/19 or 245/35/19 instead of the standard 255/35/19?

Rubbing slightly all round and I'm due new tyres so thinking I could have a small stretch on to avoid rubbing..

My old S4 came with 255's as standard with 19s never had any problems. Coincidentally my new S4 (albeit B9) now comes with 245 wide as standard on 19s

Yeah when mine was standard height it was perfect but it's lowered with spacers on now so just rubs slightly..

Ahh my bad, didn't spot you had lowered it!

Looking good though m8. What suspension and spacers have you gone with?

Cheers! The springs are actually for an A5 but also suitable for A4 H&R 29059-2 which states 45mm but with us having lower suspension to start with I think it's dropped about 25/30mm!

Gone with 15mm on the rear and 10mm spacers on the front, just rubs a tiny bit on big speed bumps.

I had those on my A5, they are the sport variant. Was too low for me tbh as the the under trays always caught on speed bumps, but I did only have 18s on mind
