I have acquired these wheels from a friend. I think they would look really good on my allroad but I don't think they could ever fit properly. The wheels are very rare and there are not that many in the US. bbs and mk motorsports teamed up to design them. They are 5x120, I am not sure about the hub size but I don't think that would be the problem the offset is what im not sure about. The smallest adaptors I can find are 15mm. If anyone can share some knowledge of how they would fit or know where to get thinner adaptors I would greatly appreciate it? Also they are real dirty only minor rash on one of them. If you look close there are no valve stems. Thanks

15mm would make them stick out 40mm more than stock. A bit high IMO. Are you still on air? I wonder if converting to the A6 uprights and susp from audis4parts would allow for more room?

You can always check to see if a re-drill to 5x112 is possible.

Never had it done myself, so I can't say how safe/reliable of an option it is. Also don't know whether it hurts or helps the value of the wheel.

15mm adapter would actually make them very close to flush on an allroad. The fronts would be 39.7mm out from stock and rears 51.75mm.

Didn't see the wheels were diff offsets....good catch troy. I though 30 was flush or no?

Depends on camber settings, but I just went out to my car and it looked like those wheels with 15mm adapters would poke just a little bit front and rear with quite conservative camber. With a little more negative camber and a minor tire stretch they would probably work.
