Pretty sure they won't fit. Stud pattern needs to match up I think?

Also the offset is different and looks like the Audi wheels sit further out from the hub.

8.5 & 9 is the depth of the wheel followed by the 19 (diameter) both measured in inches.

You will get a lot of people looking at this thread, but as Rczmk said, these wheels will not work. First the stud pattern will not work, so the wheels will not fit on the hub (don't force them either). Both wheels have 5 studs but the layout of the studs/holes will not line-up. Second, if they were too fit, but they won't, the offset is different in that they will sit differently on the car and would cause more problems than it is worth.

I have alloys with ET32 and they are fine. Difference between those and standard wheels is only 5 mm per side so they sit a bit more inside arches but I haven't had any problems and that 5 mm is hardly noticeable. I'll have to drive unpaved road almost every day so I'm getting less stonechip marks now. ;)

Yes I agree 5mm is not a going to be much of a change, and since they sit in further that is better. Was just making sure that the person who started this thread was aware that any change in offset needs to be taken into consideration, plus the wheels they were looking at are a little wider too ;)

Nice looking white RCZ :thumbup:
