TT RS wheel fitment and info

[mycarrysun]

New summer setup on stock suspension. Will lower it eventually. My SQ5 should not have better fitment than the TT. Lol!

Thank you! The finish looks really nice in the sun. Here's a close up of the finish under direct sunlight.

Hey Mooseman,
Are you still running 37F 34R pressures on your 265/40R18s? I have a set of Continental Extreme Contact Sport 2s in that size on 034 ZTF-1 18x9.3 wheels and there is no way to use the older Discount Tire chart to figure out a good pressure with these at 101Y load rating versus 92Y or 93Y for the OEM offerings. These are my HPDE setup while I run AS4 255/40R18s on Neuspeed RSE-10 18x9s for the street. I typically run 35lbs. all around but am hoping someone has more miles to report their results. I only got my car a few months ago and have no real miles to discern the ideal PSI. Any advice that anyone might offer would be greatly appreciated. Brew

After 4k miles with these 18" ZTF-01 + 265/40/18 PS4 A/S I think they're pretty sweet.
Handling is great, comfort is definitely better than the stock P Zeros, though I only drove on those for about 1000 miles and barely remember what it was like.

Might go for summers my next go around, but the performance these all seasons give me is pretty great and I haven't felt the need for more grip yet.

Here's my ride for reference with my track setup. Brew

[Thumper3]

I want to keep the OEM 20 x 9 ET52 wheels but get more tire sidewall for comfort.
I've read up on the last year of posts and I've seen multiple members run 275/30/20 tires on the OEM 20" rims instead of the factory 255/30/20 tires.
Has anyone had any rubbing issues with this change in tire size on the OEM rims?
How much does that throw off the speedometer?
Does anyone run 265/30/20 instead of 275/30/20?

It's a minimal sidewall change (1/2" overall so only 1/4" extra sidewall for ride) so minimal speedo difference.

https://tiresize.com/comparison/

It is much wider obviously which presents two issues. First it is wider than recommended for a 9" width wheel. Second I run a 265/35/19 witch is almost identical in overall height to the 275/30/20 but is .4" smaller in width. I run a ET45 but you're planned setup still sticks out slightly further than mine.

https://tiresize.com/wheel-offset-calculator/

With my current setup on factory suspension I have some light rubbing with a passenger and some light cargo in the back. I also damaged my RT fender (small tear in the aluminum near the bumper) in the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca. That's a very specific condition and have not replicated it on any other tracks so far but several other folks on here have reported the same damage from other conditions with similar tire setups.

Hopefully some folk who run those sizes or have run them can give first hand info but on paper it doesn't seem likely to be a good fit.

I run different pressures for different things.

Drag Racing: 28 - 30 all around
Street: 37F 35R
Track: 33

Pressures you run also can depend on your suspension setup, if you want more sensation in the rear then you may want to lower the pressure if you don't have a sway bar.

[Brew1961]

Thanks for the reply, Mooseman! What tires are you running at these pressures...PS AS4s? I'm trying to correlate the 101Y load index of my Continentals to whatever you're running. Thanks in advance. Brew

Yep!
Those are the ones.

I'm one of the people that went to a 275 on OEM wheels thanks to others in this thread. Along with a little more sidewall, it was the easiest way to get a good all seasons at a reasonable price (I went with AS4 that have been good). The only rubbing I've encountered has been highly infrequently at full/near full lock, which is exactly the expectation that was set for me when looking into going to that size. Speed difference is roughly 1.5 mph higher at 80mph, so not too big of a concern for me at least.

Hey everyone Im new to the Audi world. Ive always had vettes before so I need some help. I just got a 2019 TTRS and it desperately needs better wheels and tires. I got it from idaho and looks like it was traded in with a winter setup.
I live in San Diego and do some very aggressive driving. Im looking at Neuspeed RSe11R 18x9.5 et 45 with Nitto NT05 285/35 tires. Any thoughts if this will work? Or other suggestions? I value any input at all. Maybe just hit up paul@supreme power? Seems to know a lot.

[DrMerl]

285's might be a little much if you don't have any extra camber. I want to go to 275/35's to get the speedo just about 1% off but be a tad shorter in diameter than stock. I've got a few degrees extra camber on the front using 034 Camster shock hats. Currently using 265/35's on ZTF-01 18x9.3 forged rims, this size is a bit smaller in diameter and has a 2MPH speedo diff vs GPS. Shorter gearing can help but not against odometer reading. If you don't go with a Conti tire it'll likely be fairly heavy against other brands. Less unsprung weight is always good. Wider tire can yield more tram-lining. I'd suggest getting the other suspension bits in order for wide sneakers.

Thanks for the input! I should have mentioned that I planned on using the 034 camber plates with this setup. What is the OEM wheel diameter? I thought it was 26" from what I've seen in the threads.

Sorry all for double replying but I just had my coffee and realized I missed a major point from DrMerl! Again I live in San Diego. I use to run the machine shop at HRE wheels for a few years so I'm very familiar with the advantages of unsprung rotational mass. Yet I have never maximized it by considering in tire weight! I don't want to change the topic of this thread. Is there another thread here someone can point me too that compares tire weights and performance?

[DrMerl]

This is a great resource to check out tire weights and rotation sizes.

Go for the Camster plates so you get both caster and camber, extra caster makes a great difference in driving feel.

Does anyone have experience with bbs ri-a's? I see a few ttrs images on the ri-d's in japan, but was wondering if anyone ran them here.

RI-A 016 Clears RS3 steel brakes I’ve done a bunch. Couple mm difference on TTRS but I can find out. Shoot me an email if you want to explore options

[turtle631]

I have 18x9 BBS RI-A with 255/40/18 PS4S. Fit great and I prefer the extra sidewall cushion with Wisconsin roads. They've held up to some serious pothole hits with no bending. Not fully in love with silver on Nardo but I think it'll look better once I get the silver trim converted to black optic. They have some nice color options but I was buying before a price increase and there was limited stateside stock.

Thank you so much. Your silver 18s look great and glad you dont have fitment issues. Are you lowered as well? Was wondering if you have a side shot of the vehicle.

Would Rohana RFX2 19x9.5 et45 fit over the calipers? I ordered a set and Rohana said it would need a 1inch spacer. A very similar wheel, HRE FF04 same specs is known to fit.

[Paul@SupremePower]

💥WedsSport TC105x 18x9.5 +45 @17lbs each in 5x112 for RS3 & TTRS💥

🔥BACK IN STOCK🔥

I worked with Wedssport to bring these to market specifically designed for the platform.

I saw the need for a properly load rated, super light, strong, off the shelf option in a good spec that clears the brakes without a spacer. Those 20 sets sold out right away so more were needed.

Here you go!

-Clears RS3 8V and TTRS 8S steel and CCB

-Can be paired with the 9.5 +25 on the fronts for the RS3 8Y steel brakes.

-Comes titanium finish standard

-Custom finishes can be done upon request.

joined the 18" wheel club with RSe11R's 18x9 cb 57.1 ET45 on PS4s 255/40/18

For those with 356mm rear brake upgrades, you may want to consider the rear caliper clearance, it's actually worse than the fronts I was able to squeak by about 2-3mm of clearance on these wheels on the barrel. The area behind the spokes are fine, it's the barrel design that may pose an issue. The weights on the outer barrel needs to be placed as close to the edge as possible to also avoid scraping the caliper, thankfully the edges of the calipers are rolled, but still about 2-3mm of clearance as well as most.

Hi all! I just got a 2019 TT RS and looking at the HRE FF11 in 20". Should I go 9 or 9.5 width? and what would be recommended offset for flush fitment? For tires I am looking at either 255/30 or 265/30 in Pilot Sport AS.

Congrats on the TTRS! I have 18x9.5 et41 wheels wrapped in 255/40 tires. They are pretty flush at stock ride height. Linked my post with pictures for reference.

Hey guys looking for advice for wheel spacers for the OEM (Audi BO) 20"*9J ET52 Wheels with OEM Pirelli P Zero (R01) tyres in 255/30 R20. I actually like these wheels (for now)!

I'm planning on going with 034 Motorsport Dynamic+ Lowering Springs to reduce the ride height down a little (0.8" front and 0.6" rear from 034 site) for now and move to KW Coilovers in the future.

With this wheel/tyre what spacers front and rear will look *right* without any issues?

And what wheel studs would you recommend for those spacers on that wheel?

Does anyone know what 19 inch Audi wheels will fit over Mk3 TTRS brake callipers?

[nicholascanada]

Does anyone run 255-35-20 on stock OEM rims? Is this size guaranteed to fit and not rub? I am looking for winter tire options and Tire Rack won't confirm that those will work and not rub.

[LJS5]

[Reason92]

I like the dirty look. What wheels, tires, specs are you running? Lowered?

[TTRRRRRRR]

Can anyone tell me if BBS FI-R Evo 19s would fit over the Mk3 TTRS brakes without spacers?
BBS aren't listing any wheels for the Mk3 but I've plenty of Mk3s with BBS wheels.
