The "Rimz" Thread ** Look here before requesting pics of specific wheels**

[FranA3]

they need to be et 45 or higher otherwise they would stick too far out of the arch and the stud pattern for the 8p is 5x112 so the 5x100 would not fit without a adapter

 

[N8]

is that the perfect set up for 19's n8 just so i know for when im buying a set

No thats the A3 fitment size iirc, that they do those in if you get me

Hi all, Im looking to get some rotiforms and i know a guy selling some and the stud pattern is 5x100 would that fit my 04 plate audi a3? Apparently he said my style a3 is 5x112? ...
Thanks JM

8P (as in 04) A3/S3 is 5x112 pcd, the older 8Ls are 5x100. You should be able to get adapters to change the pcd, but they'll also act as spacers and push the wheels out a bit too so depends on the offset. I'm sure N8 will be able to advise you more specifically, but basically just look for 5x112

Yes that's very nice bro, the drop is just right I reckon

Does anybody know where I can get these REPS alloys in 19"s Cheaper then £650 ....

I'm also have trouble getting these in 19" Titanium.....as many of them are in silver only. Ive been quoted £699 ..but I think that's over priced.

Where have you looked?

That looks very smart

What are the specs of the CH's? You running spacers?

 

[Boydie]

CH's are ET50 5X112 8.5 Wide

Get some Audi Wheel Nut covers to put on your BBS nuts - makes the wheels look a lot nicer!! they are roughly 16p each but you can get them on ebay too!

Here they are on my old A3:

If you can't see them I will sort it out tonight. It's just I am in work and photobucket is blocked

 

[N8]

They are 8J Boydie

 

[Boydie]

I'm an extra half inch wider though N8

I stand corrected lol

Anyone have a link to a place that has pics of all Audi OEM rims? Similar for any VAG (Bentley, VW, Skoda, Seat etc) too.

I'm looking for 19 inch, 8.5-9" options and want as OEM as poss.

Like this page for BMW Felgen-Katalog - BMW-Treff - der Treffpunkt für alle BMW-Fans und -Fahrer

N8 you're clearly the guru here you'll know surely

 

[N8]

should point out these are genuine alloys and i can courier them to the buyer im really open to any offers

 

[Fivetones]

Thanks N8. I knew you'd come up trumps.

This begs the next question. Anyone have any pics of a nicely stanced 8P on these rims? (9x19 et44 - will et35 9Js work on an 8P, I've yet to get a feel for that?)

Such a shame they never did a 19" Monoblock like these 18s. (a8 10 hole "monoblocks") - and no Holstens don't count

 

[N8]

19x9 ET44? I don't think so, you on edition your username looks so familar

Anyone got pics of an S3 on genuine R8 rims? Would be interesting to see how they fit the look of the car. Those 19" VW Savannahs look nice too, with the anthracite inserts. Maybe someone could work up a quick photoshop from one of the lowered cars in this thread?
