Wheel spacers..

[Mikey170]

is anyone running wheel spacers on standard 18inch rs6 wheels??

and how do they find the look of the car with them on??

pictures if you got em please?

It will look alot better over stock.

whats best spacer size?

I am with RS4s. Looks much better, as N8 said. No pics as only fitted the only day. 10mm front and 12mm rear are perfect. Have a bit of rubbing at the front, just need to raise the front a little, as the car is lowered on coilovers.

ye mine is sat on standard suspension atm, looking to possible change that in the new year.

You can still go pretty low with 10mm spacers, I guess some stretch on the tyres would aid that too, but I don't really wanna go there.

10 & 12mm is good to go with.

As mentioned 10mm front and 12mm rear is the most popular choice.

Well worth it.

I've got 12mm on the rears.

Not the greatest of pics but...

i got 12's on the back on mine, did run 15's but it scrubbed on the rear plastic arch liner. 12's are much better!

 

[N8]

10s and 12s it is.

how do the spacers work if the car is lowered?

If you want to put a bit more effort in, sell your wheels and buy the same ones off an A4, they are 44mm as standard and have a more convex look to the spokes

i like the rs6 style tbh though, and if i am gunna change the rims it will be for after market rims.

just fancy lowering it and spacing the wheels out a tad.

fine, as long as you don't go too low on standard tyres

cheers, 20 to 30mm should be enough.
