Wider Tires

sparks · 03-03-2005, 04:21 PM

Does anyone know if I can run 255/55ZR16 in place of the stock 205/55 ZR16 and not get rubbing problems?? I have 98 A4 2.8 with the factory sport suspension and stock 7 spoke rims. Thanks

Try going to tirerack.com and going through their tire sizing modles.
255s will be almost 2" wider than your 205s.

I believe the widest you can go is 235 width without running into to many problems i have 245/40zr 18 on mine and i had to pull and roll my front fenders to keep from getting tire damage.
