Maybe the one who has his car could stop by Hartmann Wheels and let them see if/how their wheels fit. They're looking for an RS3 to try them on. I'm almost tempted to take the 2 hour drive down and let them use mine.

BBS finally released wheel size options for our cars. There are 18" options for winters.

Default Encouraging news but...

Application Guide - BBS USA

Before I could pull the trigger I'd really want to talk live to get some confirmation on fit. Offsets listed for the wheels in the application guide vary considerably.

Here's my fave:

Oops. Sorry for being off-topic. My choice above would be for summer wheels. Clearly not a the best choice for winter!

You should make that drive...



I'll be going there when my car shows up in mid Nov.

If for some reason I end up being the first, I'll be sure to report back to the group, but it will be close to a month from now (hopefully less)

Since I don't really care for the OEM wheels (Blades), I'll be using them for winter duties, Hopefully there will be more choices in the spring for summer wheels. The BBS CI-R is on my top list atm. The offsets are close to the OEM specs.

This is great. I'm very interested in running 18'' rotors for my winter setup--if you can please have them test this option.

Since the front on the non-staggered is 8" can we put 8" on both front and rear? Discount tires have several wheels that seems to fit on the RS3...

Drag DR-60
19 X8 5-112.00 32 BKMTXX
ITEM# 71435

Should fit on both front and rear??? Who'll be the first to test this setup
