Hi all,

I have a European 1.8T S-line A5 with the Y-spoke wheels on. The wheels look a little tucked in and would like to add spacers to make them flush with the fenders. Any suggestions on what size spacers I should get? I was thinking something like 10mm front / 20mm back?

Sorry if this has been asked before, I did a search and it either has not been asked, or the search feature is off duty...

Thanks in advance!

I suggest H&R's DRA series, as opposed to DR, as these spacers bolt to the spindles/hubs (bolts are included in the kit), and the wheels bolt to the spacer, allowing you to use stock wheel bolts (nicer bolts, eliminates the need to use longer wheel bolts, generally more solid). The DRs require longer wheel bolts that pass through the spacer.

Here are some reference pics. My car is absolutely dumped in these pics - I've since dialed-up the ride height - but the wheel positions do show the effects of the 20/25mm spacers.

The tuck is awesome:

sick. the 20 /25 mm spacers look great. anyone have an idea what 20mm spacers would look like on a 04 A4 ?

Hey Europa, and problems with rubbing once you installed the 20/25mm? Does anyone have pics of 15/20mm setup?
