Re: The OFFICIAL whore your ride thread

If you ain't rubbin, you ain't dubbin (or in your case Audi'in), your wheel spec looks great!!!

You didn't f up. Its a consequence of being low. You could trim the tire size but seems like you've stretched them nicely. Roll fenders?

Sure you will get more info from B7 people on here.

Haha thanks. Yeah the plan was to repaint the burnt areas and roll / pull the rears slightly. Hopefully even just maxing the camber in the rear will fix it enough? I dont know enough about wheel specs to know if it'll be enough haha.

Re: The OFFICIAL whore your ride thread

If I was you, this is what I would do. Start with a proper flat roll and see what that does for your rubbing situation. If it doesn't fix it, move on to doing some camber adjustment. If that doesn't help, then THINK LONG AND HARD about your next step. You can either sell your current wheel setup, research and find the right fitment wheels/tire setup that wont rub, and buy that, or you can pull your fenders. Just know that pulling fenders is serious business. Its not as easy as people make it out to be, and once its done there's no going back. If you fvck it up, its gonna cost big $$$ to fix it. Fitment without rubbing takes a lot of research but the payoff and satisfaction is awesome when you finally achieve it!

Maybe post up your specs in your thread so we don't de rail this one. I'm sure Dylan and I could help you out with offsets and what you could do to stop rubbing.

I'm running et25 on my winter setup. 8.5 wide and I can drive it nearly aired out.

...I guess what in trying to say is, lower it.

This^ also, I pulled my fenders and it turned out pretty good and wasn't very hard to do.

CH's were my back up if I didn't find anything forged/multipeice. BUT I ended up with something of higher quality

Re: The OFFICIAL whore your ride thread

Just thinking back on the cars I've owned over the last 15+ years. Not that many of them, but had great memories building each one.
