RobGTi Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Hi there, new member here so i'm going to ask what i expect are the usual newbie questions, so here goes. I know this is going to be the sort of question people ask all the time but i have searched around on the forum but still couldn't find an answer, so, will the 18" TT wheels that look like RS4 alloys fit an S3? I know the RS4 has the wrong offset but if they are off a TT will they be a straight swap? Thanks, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollox Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Yes, providing they are 5 x 100 pcd (i.e. from the TT and not the RS4 then yes). You can have OEM Audi wheels or 'RS4' (5 x 100) replicas. Audi actually fitted these 18in wheels as standard to many late S3s. The differences between the genuine RS4 wheels and the TTs and replicas can mainly be seen in the groove on the edges of the spokes. On the genuine RS4 wheels this groove tapers out halfway down the spokes wheras on the others it runs all the way down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobGTi Posted September 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Cheers for the quick and informative reply. i'll have to find out if they're off at TT or an RS4. Thanks Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobGTi Posted September 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 O and i forgot to ask, do you know the offset and stud pattern on a 52 plate A4? would these wheels fit that too? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollox Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Pretty sure they won't I'm sure the A4 runs the same stud layout as the RS4 which might be 5 x 112? Don't take my word for that - there are lots of people that know and they will answer you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopsta Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Mollox is correct the A4/A6/A8 stud pattern is different that that on the A3/TT/S3. Welcome chap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purple_nurple Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 When I first clapped eyes on my new car it was parked in a lockup in front of an A3 sportback with the TT alloys on. They are very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
