I don't think you can run that wide of a tire.- the RS4 has mods that allow it.

Yes, you can. Corey and/or Sharon have done it...

...requires fender rolling and nailing the offset just right.

Well if it is possible then the S4 certainly has the hp to make that wide of a tire work.

You need a 17 x 8.5 wheel with a 37 to 38mm offset.

I currently run 255/40/17 Kumho V700's on a 17 x 8 wheel (I wish it was 8.5!) with a 35mm offset. It requires reasonably stiff suspension (if you're lowered), and a pretty good fender rolling job.

Also, I run 255/35/18's on 18 x 8.5 Fikse's with a 38.65mm offset. It fits great!!!
