Hi everyone, im looking for a new rims on my A3 saloon. I found nice ones from audi TT - r18 8,5j et29. In my country, wheels cannot exceed the frame of the car. Will I be Ok with these? Post your pics if you have some similar r18 rims
 
Are you sure those you found are also 5x112. The ET tells more likely to be from the first version of TT which are 5x100.
I think the current and previous version TT has ET50 or even bigger.

On other sites i found them as A5 rims, so maybe the guy selling them have wrong info. But these are what im looking at. 8,5j et29

Those are 5x112 for sure and for A5.
I would testfit them before buying. 8.5 and ET29 might cause problems with fitment. I am not sure. Perhaps someone with same setup can answer that for 8Y version.
Calculating; those would stick out 24mm more than original 8x18 ET46. In my previous A3 sedan 8V original was ET43 and ET28 was just on the edge of the fender. BTDT.
