  • Stance experts / gurus....help/advice needed please

    I posted this in the general section but think it may be better suited in this section.....

    Hey guys I'm looking for some answers and advice regarding the stance of my car.
    I have a 2005 Audi A4 3.2 s-line Quattro avant. I am running coilovers with genuine Audi le mans alloys which are 8.5x19 et43 with 235/35 vredestein ultrac sessanta's, I also have replaced the rear wheel hub carriers for b7 rs4 ones as I run b7 rs4 brakes front and rear. I have my ride height set at 24.2" from ground to fender and I am experiencing some rubbing at the rear on the wheel well liner.
    My question .... Does the Quattro have a wider track than the 2wd? I have a friend with a 2wd saloon who has the exact same wheels but he is running air and his wheels do not rub at all ?
    I have the camber adjustment bolts on the rear set to maximum negative camber also but still rubbing. I have heard of guys running very wide wheels with very low offsets and not experiencing rubbing just wondered what I am doing wrong ?? Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated and would stop me pulling my hair out bit by bit !! I have attached a few pics, sorry the only close ups I have on laptop are with fish eye lens










    Thanks in advance

      I dont know what the measurement of the camber is I dont have access to a camber gauge, when I adjusted the camber I span the bolt through 360 degrees to see which position gave the most negative camber then set both sides the same
