    Can anybody who has factory fit 18" wheels on their B7 please give me the correct measurements (ie offset, pcd, tyre ratios etc) as they came from the factory.

    Hopefully someone with an S-line ?

    My 16" wheels on my SE will need upgrading after the motor gets dropped in December. And I don't to get the wrong wheels.

    Cheers

    Thanks guys;

    I've got the following from another source;

    "Stock 18's are 5x112pcd with a 43mm offset, with 235 40 18 tyres"

    This is my problem;

    kodkod.84, you mention on offset of ET45 yet the info above mentions 43 ?

    Which is correct ?

    Could well be true if they are the standard RS6 S-Line wheels, I have the 18" DTM made by Ronal and when I whipped the wheels off for a clean up they were stamped with ET45 on the inside.

    I can't see if it will make too much of a difference if you go ET43 or ET45.

    Audi A4 B7 2.0T FSi S Line Special Edition Quattro 2007. This car was factory fitted with 235/40 18" Conti Sport Contact 2 on 7 Arm 8J 18 wheels (New RS4 type 7 Spoke) Wheel data is as follows:Audi Part No: 8E0 601025 BA 8Jx18H2 ET43 5/112

    I have since fitted Genesis wheels ( http://swtyres.co.uk/wheels/genesis/drift/hssr ) with Toyo Proxes T1-R 235/40ZR18. These wheels have an offset of ET 33 and were machined to this off set to fit the hub and give a 1.5mm clearance to the caliper (no spigot rings required) What ever wheel you select, even if ET43, may not fit due to the curvature of the spokes.
