Default Offset question

I have a 2010 a6 c6 and plan on getting 20s for my car. I will have it lowered with St coils. I won't tuck it I'm just going to get rid of most the gap and have about two or three fingers gap.

The rims I want are the Verde Axis and they only offer a 20x9 et32. I know this is kind of aggressive and plan to put on a 245/35 tire. I hope the little stretch will help clear but will the 32 offset be ok? Any input would help. Thanks.

+32 offset is aggressive but fine. In fact, there are forum members here who have run +29.

Personally I run a +35 and have zero rubbing issues.

On my 19" wheels, I run 255/35/19, which are the correct fitment and size to ensure my speedometer is correct to actual speed.

post pics after you get everything mounted. I'm interested to see if this will fit with a lowering kit

BTW, car looks great.

As for the rubbing, can you be more specific as to where in the liner it's rubbing and when...is it front wheels or all? Also, is it the edges only? You may need to roll your fenders or it may be that you simply raise the height on the coil overs be a 1/4-1/2 inch.

Most rubbing is coming from the rear. When I hit a bump I can hear the edges I believe hitting the cloth lining. Nothing in the front. As far as I know I just got the car so I'll do more driving when time permits

Real nice. How far down are you lowered? Add some more pics too if you don't mind.
