Looks like she is going to the garage. Not quite sure how she got this way but im getting nowhere fast on a fix.

Hi All, I just found a good set of 18 inch A5 S-Line alloys and need to know if they will fit on my A3 8P ? Offset wise wheel websites show the A5 alloys as offset 29 ? As such the poke would be 46mm Would this work ? Are my offsets correct for the A5 ? Thanks !

Thanks all. I guess I have to accept that 8.5 ET 45 might not be right then. I’m sure I’ve seen or read posts that suggest they would be ok depending on tyre stretch / profile but I see what you guys mean. Shame as those radi8’s were mint.

So, I got me an A3 and the 16's fitted are just lame. I have the chance of a set of 18 x 8.5J ET 45 Radi8 wheels but not sure if I need 18 or 19's as I would like the slammed stanced look but also want to retain some practicality as it will be driven by my wife who has parking issues. Will the...

found a set of rotiform for good money 8.5j 18 inch et45 Will these protrude ? Many thanks Rake

Hi Mujnu, Thanks for the question. The standard price is £18.00. The discounted price is £16.20 on the 500ml so the link is correct. Many thanks ron@dieselrhino.co.uk

Well just a quick post to say that we have been using this in our Audi A3 and its made a great deal of difference to smoothness of the engine, Diesel knock, economy is improving with each tank (just on the 1 part of the 3-2-1 process) and she also feels more pokey and responsive. We also had an...

you may need to soften them with heat from a hair dryer or something that wont over heat them.

I've just wrapped the trim on my A3. Took 3 go's to get it right on the driver door trims due to the number of curves and bends but the end result is astounding.
