    Best offset for 8l s3 17x9/8s

    Hello, my friend has an 8l s3 and was looking at bbs lms 17x9 et 42 and 17x8 et45. They would need adapters, so what adapter size would you recommend? And is it doable? Looking to have the wheels sit as flush as possible. Currently has h&r coilovers.

    based on my experiance i would say you wouldn't have a problem running 15mm adaptors.

    hard to say exactly though as everyone's suspension set up is slightly different...

    Use that link.
    Will all depend on how low and what camber settings. And what your definition of flush is
