I have seen FWD's with 18 by 10 rims in rear but no Quattros - Any issues

with putting wider rim in rear on quattro? Will it negatively affect the drivetrain in any way? Thanks for any input?

lots of people have, no problem, just make sure all tire circumferences are the same

eg, 225/40/18 f 255/35/18 r (check out Quicksilva's car)

when you lower, be sure your front rims have enough clearance for the spring perches

Marcus (and myself) had to use spacers. I've got 19x8.5 rims ET 35.

Re: check out my car

Hey Technik, can you tell me if you have any experience with 19's? I want to put on 245-35-19 (on 8.5" rims) at all four corners. Do you know if I will have any problems?
