Will A5 wheels fit S7?

[ItsLarryG]

A nice set of A5 19” wheels popped up on my local Craigslist which would work well to replace my stocks for winter. I know the big brakes make it difficult to find a 19” that fits. Beyond going out there to physically put the. On, anyone know if they fit?

It'll be tricky...

if the ET is 35, which I believe it will be for an A5 it'll depend on the curvature of the spoke. It's a crap shoot, best to test fit.

Depends on which ones exactly. Spoke design have more to do with whether they clear the caliper or not than width and offset.

19”x8.5” et32

When I had 17z calipers on my B6, I struggled with finding an OEM wheel to clear. 19x9 et32 S5 wheels cleared, but I had Rotiform IND-Ts in 19x8.5 et32 and I needed spacers.
The S6 calipers sit a bit further out which makes them a bit more forgiving, but it’s all about the spoke design.

If it’s et clearance, I have 17/15mm spacers. I thought it was an issue with internal diameter of the wheels.

Oh, 19” wheels clear no problem.

I take this back, seems hit or miss depending on the barrel.
