I have an 04 a4 quattro and I am looking at putting on a set of 18x8.5 et 35 wheels and I want to verify they will fit without rubbing. I searched for about 15 min and found a few threads that touched on it but I never saw a definate answer. From what I understand about offsets I am pretty sure they will be ok but I wanted to see if who is running that offset and if they are having any issues. Also right now I am at stock height but I am planning on upgrading to H&R sports in the near future, will that effect the fitment when I do that? Thanks in advance.

 

what size tyres?

 

not sure what I am gonna get I was thinking 235 or 245 with a profile of 35 or 40. What do you suggest?

 

I run 19 x 8.5" ET 35 offset rims with 235/35 tires and I also have the 02 sports package suspension and I have had no problems with rubbing.
According to this http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.htmlif you go with a 40 aspect ratio, your setup would be 0.2" smaller in circumference than mine so you should be OK.

 

You'll be fine on H&R sport for sure... 235/40/18 is stock size for the B6, so that's what I'd get.
