  • Rims fitting

    Hi Guys - I'm thinking of buying a second hand rims, I am sure it will fit in terms of PCD and ET, but I'm just wondering if the width won't fit my car.

    The Rims are from B5 A4 Audi

    and my car is Bora 4motion 2001 model.

    Can any one give me any info please.

    thanks

    B5 Audi A4 were PCD 5x112 i'm pretty sure whereas the Bora is 5x100 so the PCD is actually wrong and they won't fit without adapters or redrilling.
    In regards to the width question without knowing the ET and rim width we can't help you with whether they'll rub or not on your car. It's not like the A4 came with only one set of wheels so yeah it's impossible without more information.
    Cheers,

            It doesn't say how wide they are, but being 5x100 ET35, they're probably designed for MK4s.



            As a comparision, my wheels are 18x8 ET32. If your new wheels are 8 inches wide, they'll sit 3mm closer to the car (less wide) than mine. This will change if they're 7.5's or 8.5. The tyres are also 235's, which is slightly wider than the "normal" MK4 size of 225 40 18. This will have an impact on your speedo reading.
