I tried the exact same fitment and it was a decisive no-go on the front. It might have cleared the rear - can't remember. Tried the Pirelli P-Corsa's (60 treadwear!)- VERY wide for the size, made...

That's amazing, like to see those 315's!

275's won't handle well as they could/should or look good on 9" wheels. A slight compromise could be made using Japanese tires and 35 series (255-265/35's). Conti, Michelin and Vredestein are...

I think a 285 would or 295 might fit the rear....

After running 4 or 5 sets of 275/30 and 35's have noticed actual tire sizes vary by several MM. But generally haven't had any problems (once the...

Very curious setup. I'm sure others would like to see this.

Looks sharp even from afar. Too bad the file size here is so small (admin?).

That's light, very. And even certainly lighter than even what Forgestar had told me. Had been talking about 18x9"...

The list is long and wide....most anything-- including anything from TireRack. Can...

Yes, for the one's mentioned so far. Working on other brands also. What are you looking for?

PM'd.

I had gone thru the near agonizing process of finding wheels that I both liked and would fit the car-- and the budget. Nearly all wheels look better when the car is lowered. Vice versa too. It's...

Always new the OE stockers were, well, Pretty Looking Porkers. :eek:

My flow form forged 19's are noticeably lighter when switching wheels out.

OE tires are 255/40's, O_E.

(Even the C5-A6 4.2 uses 255's)

Just for fun:

There's one set of each wheel size and new 275/30's here. General tech forum, but we're also looking for new members to grow with. Feel free to post what you like or are searching for. Always...

Maybe these?

Clever process. Didn't think it was practical to roll them more.

Switched from RE11's to PSS, same size. The PSS have a smaller OD (1/4" or so) and are a few MM narrower. Now have 3-4mm between...

O_E,

Thanks for all the input. I can see it's also written as general info and to help others. Always good.

The flat spotting issue seems far worse with low profile tires, irrespective of...

What's the load index on those tires?

There's screws under the front lip (12 o'clock) that can be removed. Curious how the fender rolling works out. I can't see how it can be rolled anymore...

Nistah, I got extra bolts from Bahnbrenner and spacers. I use bolts that go all the way thru the drive flange. There's plenty of room on the backside.

One of the reasons I do this is because...

It's a long thread,just throwing out my latest tire dilemma: Input is welcomed.

Despite my initial excitement on the new RE11's (275/30-19), and fantastic traction, if not nearly amazing,...

Probably out of my price range, but sounds nice....a 275 will be somewhat stretched on a 10/10.5 wheel. Even with my 9.5" the 275 is slightly stretched looking, but seems to help flatten the tire...

Did you get the wheels? What brand makes a 10.5" width?

I think the wheel would fit, but only with a 30 series tire...

I have some good pictures (of de-nubbed uprights) on my camera somewhere.... I ended up buying 3 sets of spacers to fine tune the fit (15,10 and 8mm). Finally got it figured out and sold the ones I...

After 3 sets of spacers and several months gone by my wheel fitment has sorted itself out:

FRONT-

TSW Nurburgring 19x9.5 ET41
8mm Eibach spacers (effective ET33)
275/35 B-stone S-04's
