:: ECS Tuning :: NEW!! 8V S3 ECS Wheel Spacer Flush Fit Kit
The German TUV (Technical Inspection Association) has determined that in several European countries the clearance between fender and tire must be adequate to accommodate snow chains when safety requires.
In North America, where no such law exists, S3 owners have the option of restoring Audi's original intention of providing a focused race-bred machine by widening their 8V's stance, improving road-holding and performance aesthetics.
Improve your stance appeal with the in-house fit/tested hubcentric 10mm front / 17.5mm rear ECS spacers and appropriate length wheel bolts.
Straight Flush

Jason; am definitely ordering a set here in the next few days. Weather will hopefully soon be nice enough to take off my winter wheels/tires and put on my factory 19s again. Looked at H&R info as well but your set is more straight forward and included everything already. Good deal.
Out of curiosity, why only 10mm in the front compared to 17.5mm in the rear? Would think it would be the same for both ends. Is it to compensate for front wheels turning or just the nature of the fitment for this car model?

A lot of it has to do with suspension geometry and chassis. Every vehicle is different.

Will be ordering this weekend for sure. Ever since I start thinking about getting the spacers, I notice the wheel/tire to fender difference all the time. LOL
