spacers and fender roll....spacers are going to wear down your suspension and tires more quickly, btw... H&R makes good spacers.

i don't think it'll fit without rubbing. 235/40/18 is the largest you can run safely on a 8" wide wheel. and i'm pretty sure the TT still have a 5x100 bolt pattern which means the wheels won't even fit properly

yeah i'm not worried about the tires the TT bolt pattern is 5x100 which the only spacer made to go from our 112 to 100 is a 25mm spacer which is HUGE!

if they fit on your A4 then they didn't come off a 2007 TT. The bolt patterns are totally different. I like those wheels a lot though. What kind of shape are the tires in? You could always sell them to offset the cost of some new ones.
