    18" OEM c6 a6 wheels on b8 a4

    Don't hate, I tried searching!

    Will the OEM 8j 18" "7 arm" wheel fit on a b8 a4?

    I've got a set in my basement that need refinishing and was thinking they might look good on my a4 but I can't find the specs and need to know if they would fit. Any ideas?

    I intend to put the S-Line springs on soon so that may be important information...

    Unfortunately the centerbore of C6 is 57.1mm and the B8 is 66.56mm which means that the C6 wheels will not fit over the B8 hubs (at least not without having the centerbore of the wheels machined from 57.1 to 66.56)

    Ahh dang! Thank you for the quick reply.

    I don't suppose there's an adapter for that?

    Hell, even if there is I'm not sure I'd want to go through the effort. I was only thinking about using them as a placeholder til I can justify the set I want... baby #3 is on the way so mods will be taking a backseat!

    Adapters may be a possibility but you'll likely be adding 20mm to the offset plus a cost of around $300-400-ish.
