Hi Folks i've recently had 18" R32 reps with 5mm spacers on my A2 for a recent car show now i have removed them (sold them on) and back to standard SE 6 spokes i want new alloys. The only problem i had with these 18"s was the tyre size i think 225/40/18 were i got scrubbing in the arches when going over bumps etc and my turning circle was dramatically reduced.

I found these on ebay which i really like but unsure if i get them will i be able to lower also i contacted the chap about getting the recommended tyre size of 215/35/18 the wheels are 8x18 et 35 would i need spacers for these too??

They should look superb - I was torn between these and my current set (also Ur TT), but decided the ride quality wouldn#t be that comfy with the 18" set.

The offsets are the same and the tyres stated will give a diameter of 608mm, only a little more than mine (604mm) and I have no issues of rubbing or scraping, even though I have lowered fronts (-30mm) and sports rears (-10mm) with FSDs.

Cheers,

Mike

PS Get some photos up as I'd love to see what they would've looked like.
