fitting wheel spacers, to my Avant, shouldnt be as much of a pain as it is?

[Lexmat]

ive tried searching the web, and the site, but no where do i get a straight answer,
i wanted to fit spacers to the car, to bring the wheels out flush, i have already got the B5 spring cups fitted.
the wheels are original 18" s line multi spoke jobbies similar to on the RS4 these have been fitted from new



i tried fitting Bimecc, wheel spacers today, and they would not sit flush with the disc, the spacer sizes were 12 for the front and 15 for the rear.

1. would these size spacers gave me the flush look i was looking for?...if not i am able to send them back due to point 2.....below
2. why the hell do they not fit, they were ordered specifically for the A4

please help....

Could the have sent you the wrong ones? The link to the ones on your original post are for Renaults and other cars that have a 5x108 PCD. You are looking for 5x112 PCD. Also the centre Bore of newer Audis were 66.6mm compared 57.1mm on the B7 (Even if they sent you Audi ones doesn't mean they are the right ones).

Thats odd, odd,I didn't put that link in there,.......

the spacers were for an Audi A4 B7, correct pcd, and the correct centre bore, but it seems that the centre part of the hub comes out further than the machining in the spacer, the people who sold them say they have sold these, many times before for the A4 without any issues.

i have heard, that some A4 had a hub that extended further out, is this true, issue I now have is......if my car has the deeper hubs, which spacers fit?
