Need help

[spikes]

Hi a2 owners ,exited to be a member .I have an Audi a2 TDI project and I have just seen some beautiful alloy wheels but have no clue if they will fit .please I need know before I purchase them .please find attached the photos.plus the project car.thanks in advance.

Is that a factory white car?

As for the wheels, they appear to be 7x18 et40. The et40 means they will sit too far inside the arch and may even run the suspension leg. You would need to fit 15mm hubcentric spacers which would push the et to ET25 which would be manageable with the fact that they are only 7 inches wide.

Either way, you will need 215/35/18 tyres.

I don't see anything on the wheels that confirms the PCD. This needs to be either 5x100, which would give you a native fit but requiring hubcentric spacers as Steve says above. Or, they could be 5x112, which would need hubcentric adapters to fit, but these start at 20mm thick. The centre bore also needs to be 57.1mm.

Certainly looks to have suffered abuse from previous owner.

It looks to have already been lowered on coilovers.

Here’s one of my previous projects on 8.5x18 alloys et35 with 215/35/18 wheels lowered 60mm on coilovers. Those really are as big as you can go on a lowered A2.
