Spacer on Quattro

Will the Quattro system be damaged if i put on 20mm spacers in the back and 10mm in the front?
(I dont think so, but I have to ask...)
Who has some good spacers?

Re: Spacer on Quattro

Wouldn't think so, the Quattro system is sensitive to roll diameter on the wheels, with different spacers, I don't think one wheel would roll any longer or shorter than other wheels on the car. As long as the wheels got the same dimmesion all around the car, you should be OK.

The rear track is already wider than the front. It shouldn't cause any problems.

No. Make sure they are hubcentric and lipped to curb associated vibration issues. This pic is my
