lol Sorry.. I meant 2005 B7...
I have coilovers with stock rims! So I'm looking to get either 17s or 18s.

1. What is the wides 17 rims and tire size and offset withour rubbing?
2. Same question for 18 inch rims.

I was thinking of 18 x 8 with et35 up front and 18 x 8.5 et30 on rear with 235 tires all the way around.

Thank you for your eply Gary.

I wouldn't stagger, but you could use up to 8.5" ET 35 all around with up to 235 width tires in either 17" or 18". Some have gone as wide as 245 on the B7 with no issues.

Gary, thanks for your prompt reply..

I think I read on the forum that the front has to be et35 but the rear can be up to et30 for 18 in and 17 in. Is that true?

If so, I am going to buy 18x8.5 et 35 with 235/40 for front and 18x8.5 et 30 with 235/40 on rear. If this isnt gonna work, can you tell me the most widest i can go? oh yeah i have quattro.

Again, thanks for your replies

We do not stagger (run different widths or offsets front to rear) on quattro cars, so I do not know for sure if that lower offset rear wheel will work, but it seems likely to fit.
