    295 on the rs6 clubsport. But they were pirelli 295 and rs6 clubsport has kw suspension.

    otherwise 275 fit perfectly on normal rs6

    Grizz - No reason why not are you thinking lambo or R8 wheels? Just make sure you maintain the rolling diameter by using the correct tyre width/profile and you shouldnt have any problems other than physical clearance

    11" is 279mm, and I think someone on the board has mentioned that he's gone to 295 so you should be okay? Unless I'm missing something....
