Default ABT 24s on an S4 problems..

I tried to mount these rims on my S4
Cant clear the calipers in the front.
Can I use spacers to clear them?
Offset on the S4 is 45.
Offset on the ABTs 24 is 35 I think
What mm spacers do I need?

Thanks in advance

Default can the clearance be solved by shaving the calipers a little?

i believe that had to be done with the volk te-37's and axis se7en rims.

Did you shave the calipers when you mounted your CHs on the S4?

Default you can always use spacers instead...

that's what i did since i'd already painted my calipers and i really didn't want to repaint them.
also, if your brake pads are worn a bit, the te37's will fit without any modifications.

I think you are going to need a 5 mm spacer

Default Odd, they went on mine OK. Is the Euro caliper different to the US one?

Default NedK

Are your ABTs also the ones with the 5x100 fitment?
These wheels actually came from my MK4 Golf.
After seeing your car..I really want to get those wheels on my ride.
You have a nice car!!!!
Hope I can get mine on soon.

Default 5x112 I assume...

I don't see how you would get the bolts in if it were 5x100? Mine do have extra bolt holes, but I think they're for a 4 bolt pattern.

Default I have them..

They have ten holes.

5 for the golf vr6

5 for A4.

The wheels are specifically made for the two cars.

Call 1552 design. They may have the H&R adapters, although the offset will be "off" after installation.
