Hi guys, first ever post and love the forum, have been offered a rare set of azevs but are 18x8.5 with an et of 42, have been told that these will need spigots to make fit, will these tuck nicely under a b4 s2 front and rear arch? please any help would be epic[emoji482]
Can't see you failing to get them on your car - spacers (you might have to try different sizes) and maybe 225/40/18s -I've got that size on my 8.5 x18 BBS reps, they're slightly stretched but fine- I'm not a fan of the stretched look.
Love Azevs....
Thank you for the reply, and kind welcome, had a go on that website, willtheyfit or something like that, how far do yours stick out from the arches? Shall try and avoid stretch as much as I can[emoji1360] will be posting more pictures up when I collect the car, it's an emerald green [emoji7]
For example this is a 17 x 7.5 et 35 wheel with 225 45 17 rubber. About 10 mm space on the inside so for rubber wider than 235 on 35 offset I would need spacers. On et 45 the issue would be 10 mm or rubber width 20mm worse.

My 8.5s are a 35 ET I think , no markings on them, so just need very narrow shims up front to stop the tyres rubbing against suspension arms, as in the photo above, but my A8 Sport alloys are into the 50 ET territory so need 15 mm spacers...

Going to try a test fit once I get the car, without tyres and spacers and see where I am with them, just hope they fit, also been looking at Audi s3 8p alloys as a back up!
