Does anyone out there have this set up with 245/45 tires? Offset is 35. Any problems and is it a really close fit.? I would be using Mich PS2 which tends to run bigger also. I am new to this Audi and have to re- learn everything as to what does and doesn't work.
Thanks. Oh, it's an 04 B6 sedan.

I was surprised too by the 8 1/2 width but thats how it is listed for the BBS CH. I felt pretty safe with my desired setup on the 8, but the 8 1/2 adds another 1/4 inch outward toward the fender on top of the approximate 1/2 inch that the 35mm offset adds. Wheels are about the hardest mod to get right from my experience.
Is there supposed to be a fender lip on the rear of this car. It is pretty flush and seems to have been rolled right from the factory.

no, its common to have width in half sizes...you just said in your title though 18.5.... im assuming you meant 18x8.5 though and just giving you a hard time
