About This Audi S4 Premium Plus 2014 Build
We love featuring real builds from real owners. This Audi S4 Premium Plus 2014 sits on a set of 19×9.5 / 19×9.5-inch BBS Ch-r wheels, and the result speaks for itself.
The owner chose BBS for a reason. This brand delivers serious quality and a design language that turns heads at every car meet. We see hundreds of Audi S4 Premium Plus builds come through WheelFront every month, but this one stands out. The combination of the exterior with the BBS Ch-r creates a look that balances aggression with elegance.
Fitment Breakdown: BBS Ch-r on the Audi S4 Premium Plus 2014
Seeing this S4 in person, I knew the BBS CH-R setup was a masterclass in B8.5 fitment. We chose a 19x9.5 square setup with a +33 offset all around. This width pushes the wheels right to the edge of the fenders without looking like a circus wagon.
The +33 offset serves as the perfect sweet spot for these massive wheel arches. It clears the stock brakes with room to spare, meaning no annoying clearance issues with the calipers. You get that deep, aggressive look without needing a spacer to push the face out.
That signature BBS split-spoke design provides excellent structural rigidity for a car this heavy. The concave face pulls your eye toward the center cap, creating a sense of depth that flat-faced wheels just cannot match. It gives the car a grounded, planted stance from every single angle.
We dropped this car on coilovers to eliminate the factory wheel gap. This suspension work changes everything about the geometry, pulling the wheels flush with the outer fender lips. You want to keep your ride height sensible to avoid unnecessary camber wear.
Watch out for the inner fender liner at the front. If you dump the car too low, the tires might kiss the plastic tabs on big bumps. Keep your alignment specs tight to ensure the rubber clears the arches during hard cornering.
The hub bore matches perfectly with the Audi platform, which means zero vibration at highway speeds. We always prefer a hub-centric setup over using hub rings. It keeps the steering feel sharp and prevents those annoying high-speed shimmies.
These barrels are wide, so choose your tire width wisely. A 255/35/19 tire gives you a slightly stretched look that prevents sidewall scrub against the fender. It is the tactical choice for a car that sees both daily driving and spirited weekend sessions.
What We Recommend for Audi S4 Premium Plus 2014 Owners
If you own a B8.5, stop guessing and start measuring. A 19x9.5 wheel is the holy grail for this chassis because it balances weight and grip. Anything wider than 9.5 inches often requires aggressive fender modifications that you just do not want to do.
Stick to an offset between +30 and +35 for that flush look. If you go higher than +35, the wheels sit too deep in the arches and look weak. Go lower than +30, and you risk poking way past the body line.
Forget about staggered setups on this platform. The Quattro system hates mismatched rolling diameters, so keep all four corners identical. A square setup also lets you rotate your tires to extend their life, which saves you serious cash.
Don't skimp on your tires, or you will ruin the handling of this car. We recommend a high-performance summer tire with a slightly rounded shoulder. This prevents the rubber from catching the fender lip during deep suspension compression.
Avoid cheap spacers if you can possibly help it. A proper offset wheel is always better than a low-offset wheel pushed out with a thick spacer. Spacers add extra stress to your wheel bearings and steering components over time.
Style and Build Analysis
The Matte Black finish on these BBS CH-Rs provides a brutal, tactical aesthetic. It creates a stark contrast against the gloss paint, making the car look like a predator on the street. It is a timeless choice that never looks dated.
That signature stainless steel rim protector is more than just a style statement. It adds a metallic ring around the edge that separates the tire from the dark wheel face. It highlights the wheel size perfectly without making the tires look lost.
The proportions on this S4 are spot on. Because the wheels are pushed flush, the car looks wider and more athletic than the factory design. It transforms a subtle luxury sedan into a serious performance machine.
I have seen hundreds of S4 builds, but this one hits differently. Many owners go for flashy colors that distract from the body lines of the B8.5. This build keeps the color palette moody, letting the geometry of the wheels do the talking.
You can tell this owner understands car culture by the lack of unnecessary clutter. Everything is functional, from the coilover drop to the specific tire selection. It is a cohesive build that respects the original Audi DNA while pushing it further.
Why We Love This Build
This S4 stops us in our tracks because it is perfectly executed. The Matte Black CH-Rs swallow the light, giving the car a menacing, stealthy presence on the pavement. Every time the sun hits those aggressive, concave spokes, the car looks like it is moving even while standing still.
We love this build because it proves that you do not need wild body kits to change the vibe of a car. It is all about the stance, the offset, and that iconic German wheel design. This S4 radiates a clean, purposeful energy that makes us want to jump in and drive.
This is the benchmark for how a daily driver should sit. Stop dreaming and go build your own.

Before You Buy: Fitment Checklist
We talk to Audi S4 Premium Plus owners every day. These are the questions we hear most before they pull the trigger on new wheels.
Will 19×9.5 / 19×9.5-inch wheels fit my Audi S4 Premium Plus? Yes, but fitment depends on width, offset, and tire size working together. A wrong offset means rubbing. A wrong tire size means poor handling. Always verify all three.
Do I need to modify my fenders? That depends on your offset and suspension. A conservative offset with stock ride height usually fits without modification. Go aggressive and you may need to roll or pull your fenders.
Can I daily-drive this setup? Absolutely. Thousands of Audi S4 Premium Plus owners run 19×9.5 / 19×9.5-inch wheels every day. The key is choosing the right tire with enough sidewall to absorb road imperfections.
