Default Spacers?

Hello everyone! I am a proud owner of a B6 A4 Quattro. Here's the thing I used to own a vw passat, I had 19's on it and now I would like to put that same set of wheels on my new a4 but, a buddy of mine tells me that I really need to get some spacers. Does anybody have any idea as to how thick the spacers should be? Any tips or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all

Tires are 425-35-19. The offset of the wheels is 32et. I belive that the wheels are 9 inches wide or 8.5 I really dont know for sure. thank you for the help

Default The last thing you'll probably need is spacers with that offset. As for the tires, they're

probably 235/35/19, not 425. Anyway, an ET35 mm is almost flush with the fender lip, and ET32 will push it out even further. Should be ok as long as the car isn't lowered too much. Test fit first if possible.

I don't think you'll need to space it either
