You will need new tyres ! They are waaay to big for a b5.
noooooooooo!:biglaugh: where will they foul? strut or arch?
cheers for reply:beerchug:!
You probably need 235 x 30 or so to be sure,Where it will foul depends on the offset of the rims
Ive Got 225/45/17 Tyres Fitted Atm And Theres Lots Of Room, 30 Profile Sounds A Bit Harsh!
Btw The Part No For My New Rims Is 4eo 601 025n . Is There A Way Of Getting Specs On Them ?
just a quick update. bolted said wheels to car, well tried to. fitted 10mm spacers to fronts, they bolt on but wont turn, fouling on top of hub below where top arms bolt and track rod end fouls at certain steering angles. so more spacing needed . only problen is they stick out of arches about 20mm now!
rears had to fit a 5mm spacer to clear the strut but fit fine and look awsome!
but close to arch now , dont know if they will be ok when i lower the car though.
235/35 R 19 would be the best bet, whats the offset and width of the alloys?
hi , et 45 and 8.5" ta for reply!
You'll need to keep the spacers, 235/35 tyres. Prob wont be much tyre/rim protection, so dont forget to park 3 feet from the kerb (and push your wing mirrors in!!)
im stuffed if im running 35 profile tyres , do you guys know if there are any arch mods available? in my dreams someone is giong to tell me that s4/rs4 wings are wider , will bolt straight on and and all i will need is spacers:biglaugh:.
what is the widest possible wheel tyre combination you can fit ti a b5?
the 255 width is the thing is what i like the best about the alloys i bought.
