  • Audi B8 RS4 rims on 2010 VW Tiguan. Possible?

    Hi all,

    Just saw the post by BLN355 that he's selling a set of RS4 rims at the sales column. I was thinking if its possible to fit it onto my Tiguan. Currently I'm running on stock 16" alloys, quite eager to shake them off with a new look!

    Let aside the styling for a minute, I want to ask is it worth for a swap? What do I need to look out for? Thanks all!

    Bought 2 weeks ago tyres have 300ks on them, no damage at all. As new.

    Hey mate,

    Wheels will fit easily. I'm running Audi rs5 wheels in 19x9 +33 with no issues at all.

      Yes they will fit.
      I ran 19 x 8.5 ET 45 and now run 19 x 8 ET 35.

      19 x 9 ET 33 will not fit legally without guard extensions.

        I have the guard extensions on the car. I fitted the wheels without it first and they were flush with the guards front and rear.

          With arch extensions it is fine.
          VW wouldn't allow the sale of the 19" Savannah wheels on Aus ordered cars as they needed the guard extensions to be legal (sit within the body work) so 19x9 ET33 cannot be flush without the original body work.



          To the OP, you will need different tyres as well I would assume.
          I have found my 245/45R19 Kumho Ku31's to be a good all round tyre that fits your proposed setup.
