What Wheels are these ?

[Cleavea]

Hi All

looking at either changing or refurbing my current wheels and notice that there are no pictures of these wheels - can anyone help identify them ? I think they maybe Avus but I believe they only where fitted to Audi S2 S4 and S6, but where only in 6 spoke not 5, they also have 195/60/r15 tyres which could explain the slight rubbing on the inner arch at times - would a 175/55/r15 tyre be a better choice ?

Not sure on the wheel.
If you follow this post you'll get plenty info on tyre sizes.

The definitive tyre / wheel size thread

Wheels: Sizes of wheels that will fit an A2 (non 3l! - the 3L was not sold in the UK and therefore not covered here) Widths and diameters 5.5 - 7J, 15, 16, 17, 18". 7.5J works for some, not for others. Check for signs of argument on the wheelarch liners. 8J is really pushing it and frequently...

Easiest answer would be to take one off and read or upload a photo of the part number / model code off the casting on the inside rear - that will indicate what it is and what vehicle it came off. I have a set of Avus 17" 6-spokes (Audi S3) on my A2, so I can see where your observation about the similarity comes from with the divots at the end of the spokes - however the 17s are more angular than these are as well as the 6 spokes instead of 5.

Could well be made by Ronal?
