I had a 2009 B9 2.0TDi avant that was written off :sadwavey:

Before the insurance company got their mitts on it I got the 18" Five spoke alloys with 245/45 WinterConti's off it. Now on the verge of ordering a 2.0TFSi S-line s-tronic and I'd like to put the older wheels on it. I know that the centre bore changed between the B7 and B8 (found that out the hard way!) so just want to check they didn't change again for the B9.

Any know the answer?

Bore size is the same.

Bore size is the same.

Thanks Chris. I assume the offset remains the same too, ET47.

I have my rims (for winter rubber) from previous A6 on my A4 B9, (245-45-R18 tyres, both cars Sline 3.0tdi quattro).

8Jx18H2 ET39

The 39mm offset fits no problem.
My previous A6 C6 has ET48 offset but they were 8.5J rims and sporting 255x35x19, not tried a 47mm offset wheel.

Thanks all. Sounds like there's no issue.
