Default Question for ABT_AS4(aka.JGM)

You said you just tried the RS4 wheels and they rub. Are they rubbing on the fenders or inside on the brakes or suspension? Also,what size tires are you running? I have 18x8.5 w\225\40\18 on a really low car and they don't rub. I want the RS4 wheels but would like to know if they fit. Also, does anyone know the actual weight without tires?

Default Answer!

here is why they rub....
I have 18X8" borbet Type TD-wheels with ET 35 off set
and a set of MAE's 18X8.5" with ET 32 i think and they don't rub.

the RS-4 wheels have an ET of 38 and it comes out of the front fenders about 1 inch. you can't turn the wheel. they will hit the fender and the bumber.

this rim has no tire on it cause just by bolting on the wheel it clearly sticks out about 1 inch.
