Hello
Tried using the search but couldnt get a definitive answer..
Looking at getting a set of staggered wheels for my C4 S6 (97 AAN auto avant)
Provided I keep the overall diameter of the wheel and tyre combinations the same is there any risk of damaging the transmission
For example; using a 235/40/18 tyres on 8J front wheels with 265/35/18 on a 9.5j rear would have roughly the same rolling radius (+/- 1mm)
Would the additional weight of the larger rear wheel/tyre have any impact?
Apologies in advance if this is a noob question I've only ever had RWD cars so have never had to worry about this!
Cheers
