Found a DEAL on wheels

**bfisher88** · 08-08-2008 12:19 PM

Just found these, about to call him. I have a 3.0 B6 just want to make sure these will fit on perfect. Will I need spacers or anything? Thinking of driving to get them tomorrow and going straight to a tire shop and getting them mounted. What do you think?

Yes those should fit just fine, with a ET35 and 5x112... you should double check with a fitment guide at TSW.com

Looks like a sweet deal but you might want to be a little bit cautious. It's possible that one or more of the wheels is bent. I'd ask the seller if the wheels are true, and make sure he'd be willing to refund you if you go to the wheel shop and find out they are bent.

Its always a good thing to go check out used wheels in person.
Make sure there are no bends, or cracks on the spokes, inner, and outter lip of the rim.

35mm offset fits nicely, but the rear could use an 8mm spacer if your are planning to use a 235/40 series tire.
The front fits perfect, but if you want, you can run a 5mm spacer again with 235/40 series tire.

Sweet thanks for the replies guys. I'm still debating if I like the look of them enough on my dolphin grey. I like RS4 reps better but right now price is a deciding factor...

For that cheap I would take them! GL

regardless of the price, if the wheels dont make you happy, than why get them?
$375 for just the rims is an ok price.
RS4 reps are like $450-$500 w/o tires right?
If paying more for the RS4 reps will make you happy. Then I say cough out couple more bucks and get what you like.

is isn't he missing one wheel according to his ad? I think that is why he is selling it. Also it sounds like he wants $375 per wheel, I might be wrong.

Your right!!!! seems like he is only selling 3 rims! but $375 per rim is overkill mostly for used TSW.
I say pass on these wheels, and never look back

**pondside36** · 08-08-2008 02:10 PM

He is saying he doesn't have an audi not that he is missing a wheel...

**Shi-Fu JaY** · 08-08-2008 02:25 PM

Damn, that seller need to be more specific!
I got a double meaning
"I don't have one or I'd use them"
seems like I wanted to say that he was missing one rim, couldnt find a replacement, so hes not going to put it on his car anymore.

But he really meant that he doesnt own an Audi/VW to put these wheels on.

ahhhhh got it! :)

I think that wheel would give brake clearance issues

**pondside36** · 08-08-2008 02:44 PM

You need alot of bake to fill those gaps too.. someone on my ship has these same wheels on a Caddy... they look pretty good but brakes look even smaller between those spokes.
