Seen some spacers on ebay but it states the chamfer has to be min of 69mm not sure what this means?

It'll mean that the centre bore of your wheel needs to be a minimum of 69mm which probably means the spacers I'm guessing there hubcentric so there bore will probably be bigger than 69mm so you may still need spigot rings. If you get that

If that's the case they will have made the centre bore of the spacers like that so that they fit any 5x112 car

Hi thanks for replys the spacers are made for 5x100 and 5x112 my s3 is 5x100
I have aftermarket alloys and the centre bore is like 72mm (there jap) so have had to buy spigot rings to 57.1mm.
 
Have you got pics of the spacers your looking at getting ?

Any pics from the wheels ?
 
Looking at the pics of the spacers I would suggest if you've brought the spacers they will more than likely fit your car no problem once you know the fit measure your centre bore of your wheel take that measurement and one of your spacers to your local car parts store and ask for spigot rings to fit your spacer but also fit your centre bore of your new wheels

alright aarron I have already measured the centre bore of my alloys and they are roughly 72mm so have bought some 72.6mm - 57.1mm rings to go in alloys so you are saying I need to buy some for the spacers too?
 
Well In my eyes if your putting hubcentric spacers on top of your centre bore on your car in theory that's going to make your centre bore bigger I may be wrong. Just wait for spacers and spigot rings you've got to turn up and see if it all fits together if not you'll need different spigot rings

well my spigot rings fitted fine onto the alloys that's all good so just gotta get the forge spacers I guess see what happens but the spacers do state they are 57.1mm centre bore so should fit fine :)
 
Problem solved then bud. Glad it wasn't to much stress
