Default Wheel offset for 2000 A6 4.2

Does anyone know what the offset for these wheels are?


I've been looking to replace these OEMs for a while, and I think I've narrowed my choices down to 18 x 8 or 18 x 8.5





I really like those RS4 replicas but lakeshore says it doesn't fit 4.2s (45mm offset). but the RS6 replicas are 30/45mm offset, Idk much about wheel offsets can anyone explain? Does the 30/45 mean that it's 30mm offset in the front wheels and 45mm for the rears?

Any help/suggestions?

those rims in the first pix are the 17x8 (5x112 bolt patter) with ET35 offset.

If you have a A6 4.2, you should probably be ok with an offset of ET35 or ET30.

Search through the C5 A6 forum in audiworld.com for mor info.
