Default 19x9.5" with 275s or wider?

I plan to use 19x9.5" or 19x10" wheels with 275/30/19 tires. Has anyone tried this exact set up?

Default Well, that is why I asked (m)

To see if anyone knows what fits under these fat fenders.

It looks like a 275/30/19 would fit on a 9.5 or 10" wheel with a +25to30MM offset. Hasn't anyone done wide wheels on an RS4?

Default The only ones that fit that I know of are the MTM bimoto....

but they weigh 40lbs each!!!! 19x9.5. Good luck. If you check the tolerances between the wheels and suspension components, you'll find that there just isn'tmuch room to go wider. Also, a 275/30/19 wheel will really throw off you rolling diameter. The correct size in a 30 aspect ratio tire would be 295/30/19, but there is now way in hell a 295 tire is going to fit this car.

What size and offset are the MTM wheels in question?

Not sure what specs you are looking at but a 275/30/19 is only 0.4" shorter than the factory tires which won't cause any problems and will help to get the wider rubber inside the fenders and away from the suspension arms.
