RS4_Barry Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Anyone know the offset of these? Wonder if they'd fit a B5 - Sick of bending wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 ET29 IIRC. I'm maybe thinking of selling mine and getting Titanium ones, just waiting on a price. Cheers Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon_golf_tt Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Barry - I noticed a thread about this on rs246 a while back. I'm hoping to get a B5 RS4 myself soon and think the B7 wheels would look great. Try this link rs246 thread If it doesn't work do a search for b7 rs4 rims in the b5 rs4 forum. Hope that helps.

shao_khan Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 I thought with the B5 it was a choice of bend wheels, ot get real wheels and bend suspension components? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 Audi said it was part of the design to protect the suspension! They then starting replacing peoples wheels. You have the choice of more soft ones (I heard some people have had around 15!!) or you can have hard ones. If you select the latter then you don't get any more replacements.

RS4_Barry Posted November 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 I've done 18000 miles in mine and have bent 17 audi soft wheels two audi hard wheels and 2 MTM Bi Motos . ET29 not so good would prob need a spacer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_G Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 I'm glad I held out for an S4, at least the Ronal 'Dark Matter' Avus alloys would take a nuclear explosion to bend them. Such a shame as the B5 RS4 is such a good car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bent precisely none in 15,000 miles, but had 2 replaced anyway as they were kerbed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will22 Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 I tried my B7 RS4 wheels on my B5 and they didn't look that good. I have the hard wheels on the B5 and have no problems with them. I think that BBS CH's look the muts nuts on the B5 but not on the B7 I'm still thinking of getting BBS LM's like I have on the S4 cab for the B7 but not in any mad rush as 1)I'm thinking of selling it as it's been broken into twice and 2)winter is here and I don't want to be getting salt and sh!t on them. I'm taking them off the S4 aswell and putting the avus wheels back on for a few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
