Can someone school me on B6 S4 offsets? Wheel people...
So what is the stock rim size/offset?
I'm looking at 18x8.5 with 35mm offset...where will this put the wheel?
What about an 18x8 wheel with a 45mm offset? Does that sink the wheel in closer? How about a 37mm offset?
I'd like to push the wheels out a bit, the seem tucked under the car now...especially in the rear. Advice?

18x8.0" ET45 is factory B6 Avus spec
To push the wheels out you want a numerically lower offset, 18x8.0" ET35 is likely the most common fitment but leaves a small bit of room to go further. 18x8.5" ET35 will be very flush in the back but a bit aggressive in the front, we typically do ET38 for an 8.5" wheel.
