Hi guys,
I'm wondering if anyone is running wheel spacers on their RS6 with the stock wheel/tire setup to push the stance out a bit. And if so, how large of spacers could you go with? I'm also planning on lowering the car with coilovers, so that would need to be factored in as well.

I just had my body shop switch back to my stockers while I wait to get my Sportec wheels back, and they put the spacers on. I am pretty sure they are 11mm. The front wheels rubbed on every bump. The rears look pretty aggressive but don't rub.

That does look good. Just the right amount of stance. So, it sounds like 11mm is too wide from what you're saying.

11mm is too wide for the front.....on the rears it is fine.

Running staggered spacers on the Quattro isn't the best idea, is it? I wonder what the widest the front can handle is?
