Alloy help

[Chris goodgame]

Bought a 18inch audi alloy on eBay exactly. It's a fair bit off aa i tried to put it on how many types are there ? Heart broken lol.

post a picture 5x112 is the 8p stud pattern

 

[Chris goodgame]

Can't see stud pattern written on alloy ?

 

[LEE69]

Should be on the back

 

[LEE69]

That will fit ok you just need a spiggot ring to take up the gap from the wheel to hub.
If you put a bolt in they would all line up fine i bet, try it

 

[Chris goodgame]

That's all ive got

 

[LEE69]

Nothing there says 5x112

 

[Chris goodgame]

Strange.. think its the wrong one.

 

[LEE69]

If you take the weight of the wheel will all 5 bolts screw into the hub?

Have you got a full photo of the alloy? I know the 8L has a slightly smaller stud pattern to the 8P, could be an older model wheel?

8L is 5x100

 

[LEE69]

or just measure the pcd

 

[Chris goodgame]

That's from the back.

 

[Bryant1998]

Ideally a photo from the from mate so we can see the style of it

Clearly the wrong PCD

 

[Chris goodgame]

Cheers all. Just measured seems to be the 8L model. Gutted!

Did he sell it to you as an 8P model? Or as the 5x112 stud pattern?

On the description it said stud diameter 112.

On the description it said stud diameter 112.

Guessing purchased off eBay? Hopefully paid with PayPal? If you did you can open a dispute as the item is different from described

I've just found out the long number on the back starts with the car model this has 8x which is a audi a1 alloy... Been had here.

 

[Bryant1998]

If you’ve paid with PayPal you’ll be able to return the item for a full refund mate

I didn't use PayPal unfortunately.

 

[abmat]

I’d still register a dispute

 

[Bryant1998]

Yeah I’m sure ebay can still help, maybe even speak to the seller first, maybe they didn’t know the stud pattern

I think it's your fault because you said that was for A1 and A1 wheels are 5x100, not 5x112.

Not his fault mate read the posts from beginning, only realised it was an a1 wheel after he checked the part number

I've managed to get the situation sorted anyways. Appreciate all the help!
