    Just wondering has anyone fitted R19 9" ET33 Rotor TTRS off and A5 to their A6.
    I'm sure the A6 comes with R19 8.5" ET43 but I like the look of the ones on the A5 with the offset.

    Thanks

    The offset from a A5 is pretty low. Think the 19" rotors are ET33. The rears will probably be good, but the fronts can stick out quite a bit. I know that's the case on the A4 anyway.

    I actually have some 20" rotors for sale from a C7 A6 (8.5x20 ET45). I had them fitted to my A5 for a couple of months and needed spacers. Selling my car so no longer need them. PM if interested.

    Yes A5 is ET33..

    I checked that site and its saying the A6 2011- has a ET37 Offset.

    So if the rear is ok and front is a problem could you run a ET33 9" at the rear and ET43 8.5 at the front. Would this be an issue?

    So I'm still not 100% sure here.. I've been told that i can go 19x9 ET30 but that is flush to the arch.

    Would be great if anybody on here had a friend with an A5 with 19x9 ET33 alloys to confirm they will fit the A6 C7.

    I have 19" alloys with that ET fitted to my A6 and they are fine. Not sure on the width of the alloys though - for me they fill the arches better without going to 20".

    So I've fitted my 19X9 ET33 Rotor TTRS on my C7 A6 and i must say it looks the part. No issues to report. Really must say that they have made the car.
    Standard spec A6 TTRS look plain compared to it.
