I have a 1999 Audi a4 quattro 1.8 and i found rims for my cars ebay said not compatible but other sites and people say they will fit no problem please help. Im going to buy TSW Spa rims and they are 17x8 5x112mm ET32. Please let me know. Im new to this site.

 

Unless the back side of the spokes curve in and hit the calipers, they should be fine. I think with an offset of 32, they say they won't fit because they may poke out slightly.

 

These are the rims i like them alot i got them cheap new

 

What's the hub bore? The size, offset and bolt pattern won't be an issue but if they don't have a 57.1mm hub bore you'll need hubcentric rings to get them to fit properly.

And for god's sake don't call them rimz. They're WHEELS. The rim is the very small outer edge where the tire bead seats against the metal. The whole thing together with spokes and barrels is called a wheel.

 

 

How do i find the Hub bore on the wheels? The website does not say what it is so i may need to wait till they come in and then see.

 

stay off my post if you dont have answers and get a life.

 

hahaha yes ma'am

Ps: most TSW wheels are a 72mm bore.

 

I can't find any hub bore info on TSW's website. Do you have the eBay link for the auction where you're gonna buy these? If you had them in your possession already you could check the hub bore with dial calipers.

You can get 57.1mm-70mm hubcentric rings pretty easily online so if you like the wheels and you're sure you can get a good deal on them, I'd just buy them and then pick up some rings. You don't *NEED* the rings to mount them, but you're gonna experience lots of vibration without them

 

yeah cuz no ones ever made any other posts about how to tell if wheels will fit, this thread is about as useful as ol X to the Z up there.
