    Default Compatible wheels? – 19-01-2011,11:58 PM
    Will wheels from a B7 A4 fit my 1999 A4 2.5Q (B5 model)?

    I've gathered that some wheels require spacers or different wheel nuts.

    Sorry if this is all too obvious, but i've done some trawling and haven't nailed an answer.

    Patrick.

    I have had a look to try and work this out too...
    I cant seem to get a definite answer, with different sources saying different things...
    Particularly with the size of the wheel studs?
    Are the 5x100mm or 5x112?

    hopefully someone can shed some light on this

    thankyou in advance

    They have the same centre bore and PCD but the offsets sometimes vary.

    Easiest thing to do is to check the ET (offset) of the current wheels and the new wheels.

    The details should be stamped on the rear face of each wheel


    Considering selling my VCDS KEY-USB interface. If you're interested please contact me via PM or email.

    Been looking myself, from what I've read you need offset between et35 and et45 to fit
