Hi Gang-

Apologies for taking the low road here- I've been searching but losing confidence as I see so much info. This should be quick.

I have a 2006 A4 (3.2) w/ the s-line suspension. Current wheel size is 17 x 7.5.

I'm looking at a set of VMR 810's- in 18 x 8.5. Same bore size as my stock wheels, and the offset is +45 (also the same as my stock split spokes.)

Are they simply bolt on and go? Any issues to look out for? Thanks!

Eric

As far as I can tell it comes down to this:

The offsets are the same (my stock split spokes and the VMRs I’m looking at are both 45) and the diff of width is 1” (stocks are 7.5 and these are 8.5’s.) So it follows that the wheel would sit 1/2 inch outwards.

Looks-wise that’s great...any concerns of contact with the fenders? My guess is not- this should be modest compared to what many of you run. Should I be concerned about interference with the stock calipers?

Many thanks.
