[s-cars] wheel offset

[JC]

Marto:

If I have the figures right from memory, I'm runnin' A6 2.7T OEM 16x7.5
take-offs with an ET45 and IIRC the Nokia WR tires on there are 205/55/16
(wheels originally snagged for a C5 A6, then shifted to my old Type-44
200TQA, now tossed on the S6).

Not a problem at all. Put something over 2k miles on them over last month or
so with various work/personal/holiday road trips. Look a little funny
(probably only to the indoctrinated freaks who notice such things) as they
are tucked in under the car a bit, but one small bonus of a big ET in the
winter is that with the wheels further under the car you get less slush/crap
sprayed up the side of the car.   I do still have to remind myself to slow
down taking ramps with the winter setup though... on dry days I miss the
wider tire width and track.
