    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 hub carrier nub was removed) with clearance if the off set is appropriate. Solved with a quiver of wheel spacers....

    I have the same size and offset as you Dave. Except on the rear which is 31mm.
    Cheers, G2/Gary

    I agree on both counts

    285 or 95 could work on the rear but I prefer square setups on all my Audis

    i also found a quite beefy 265/35/19 Michelin PSS in NO fitment. Which means Porsche fitment. That tire is fat and wide.

    Suits the RS6 perfectly.

    Refresh my memory, what wheels are we looking at here, and specs please? Flush with no spacers correct. These are a great look.
