Take a look at the D2 wheel and tyre upgrades section for some sizing advice and also check out This recent thread for some more information.
You do need to make sure if your wheels are staggered front and rear that the rolling radius of the front wheels and tyres are no more than 1% difference in diameter than the rears or you will get issues with the abs sensors / quattro system throwing up faults as it thinks the wheels are slipping due to the imbalance. |
I want the deep dish (polished Chrome part) to be slightly wider at the rear but the overall tyres sizes to be similar if possible and don't want any issues with fault codes etc , hence asking for advice as i don't understand how all this works , i was told that you shouldn't stagger your wheels on a 4WD but wasn't sure if that was because the particular suppliers of the wheel i enquired about (not those listed below) didn't didn't supply what i needed and were just saying that to get me to buy their brand of wheels.
I don't have money to burn here so i want to make sure i get it right first time with tyre and wheel sizes , for example are these suitable and if so what would be the correct tyre sizes to have so as not to throw up any codes

So what i'm basically looking for is someone to tell me what size tyres and spacers i need to go with these wheels to make everything look / drive ok or what size wheels, tyres and spacers i need for this to work with this brand of wheels .
Sorry if i sound awkward but i genuinely dont have a clue here
