ECS spacers?

Post by freezaburn »

Hi guys,

I currently have a 2005 Audi A4 (B7) 2.0 TFSI Avant.
I believe the OEM Rims on this car to be:
PCD 5x112 7.5Jx17 ET45 currently with 225/45/R17 tyres.

I have also got a set of rims that came off an Audi A3 1.8 TFSI
PCD 5x112 7.5J ET56 (Kinetics) with the same 225/45/R17 tyres

ALAS! The Kinetics do not fit as the offset is too large (they push right up agains the brake calipers. The tyre dealership where I was having them fitted told me that I cannot put spacers in as they will cause vibration. With a 11mm difference, surely that would be fine with say, 12mm ECS spacers all round?

If so, please can I get a price on 4x spacer etc all round? (Website still not replying to queries, and H&R are ridiculously priced)
