Hi guys
I collected my a4 avant over the weekend and I’m loving it but feel the wheels need to be bigger as 18’s look a bit lost in the arches .

Was looking at these 19’s

But I’m unsure on what width/ offset to get and they seem fairly limited in what they offer.
Failing that are there any decent oem wheels available that would suit the car ?
Thanks
Chris
 
Second pic looks stunning. But you'll have to lower it also to achieve that look.

Good luck mate

Cheers man
Yeah I think they would really suit it ! I was kind of assuming it will probably need lowering as well but being a daily would probably do as I did on my previous avant and put some bilstein shocks on with eibach springs

19x9” A5 Rotors fitted on mine yesterday, fill the arches much better then the standard S line alloys

Get yourself any set of A5 wheels and they look better, since they are with a lower ET. I.e. those you have now are 8.5" wide and with ET29 in A5 version. I had a set of them on my previous B8 Avant and those were spot on.

I had the second set on my old B8. Seen the guy i sold my car to looking to sell them (and my old car already :( )on facebook. he has painted them black with red centres, might be worth speaking to him about a buy on the wheels.
His name is Lewis Bell. @LEW115B

Rotiform SNA's cast, they havent made them for years as far as I am aware, only forged ones now available to order ££££. pretty cool if they are doing the cast ones again :)
19x10j et35, you would need lowering and 2.0 of camber on the back which can be done by whoever alligns yours wheels at presumably no extra cost.

Yeah I think that’s the main issue with them is they don’t really fill the arch or sit flush so look a bit lost ! The lower offset defo looks better , thanks

Oh yeah they look bad *** ! That’s the sort of style I was looking at but torn on whether to just get some different Audi alloys instead ! Cheers for the info man will have a look on fb

Yeah I thought even if the rotor design isn’t what you’re looking for at least the specs will give you a good idea of fitment :icon thumright:

Have to admit I actually really like the rotors and I think the grey would contrast nicely with the silver ( although I will probably colour change it when I get a chance )
They suit the car really well .
Appreciate the advice and pics dude

Well I have completely changed my plans ha ha
My mates garage just got a set of lemans wheels 19’s he is giving me for £100 couldn’t turn that down !
Just need to decide which colour to paint them.
Choices are silver , graphite or try to replicate the satin chrome finish you get on s mirror covers .
The lemans wheels suit it well judging on this so for the money had to be done !

Good choice mate! I was going to put the B7 RS4 wheels from my old A4 onto my current one until I realised the CB was different :chargrined: I’d go for the graphite colour :icon thumright: looks awesome against silver paint

Ah that’s a shame man , yeah I’m swaying towards a nice graphite atm as I think it will suit it well plus make it look a little less oem
