[BiturboS4] Wheels and Tires

[David Lau]

I cannot speak to the A6, but on my 2001 S4 avant, I put 235/45
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S on the stock Avus rims for winter, and they're
VERY close to the rear braces. For summer I got a set of 18" Ronal
R-38's with 235-40 Pirelli P zero Rosa and there's LOADS of room
because the wheel offset places them a bit farther out on the car (but
there's NO rim protection). Since my goal is to raise the final drive
ratio, I may try 45's next time on the 18's. That'll fill the wheel
wells!

HTH,
David
