Mission finding Second hand PCD 5x100 Alloys

[Kyle86]

Hi everyone..

I have been looking for ages on Ebay for a set of 17" Alloys for my 96 A3 8L.

The stud diameter is 5x100 offset 38-42

I cannot find anything and I can't afford to buy new (and tyres), there are some great second hand deals with decent tyre tread. Everything seems to be 5x112 (more popular I'm guessing).

Am I looking in the right place, are there any other options for me as I have heard something about adapters. What are the costs of this option.

Sorry I am newbie to the Audi world.

Many thanks in advance :)

Have you looked for golf wheels, S3 wheels or TT wheels.

Kyle aswell as the obvious e-bay,try pistonheads and go into the 'parts and plates' section then as Kite says look at TT, golf and S3.
There is also a dedicated wheels section on there

Or go to p/heads ,then classifieds, then parts and plates,then select the wheels section as Kite suggests or search by manufacturer section, simples
