    Rear wheel spacer dilemma

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hi all
    I have an Audi a5 2.0 tfsi 2010 plate.
    I have measured and need 15mm rear wheel spacers to get the nice look many of you have. The problem I have is finding some hubcentric ones to fit as the hub length is so long. I have tried some (cheap) spacers that were supposed to fit for the car and the centre bore length was too shallow which left the spacer about 2mm short of seating flush against the hub. Hope this is making sense so basically the hub length hit the chamfer inside the spacer bore before it could sit flush.
    Has anyone had this problem and know of any 15mm spacers that will definitely fit? Or another way around this?
    Thanks

    Thanks for replys. Size is 66.56 or 66.6 which some Mercedes also use. I will speak to H&R as this seems a popular choice for the A5.

    Hi DW, Hartmann wheels is a good source as well, as they can set you up with the proper length bolts for the spacer as well. For example, That is, the spacer gets bolted to the hub, then the wheel uses your stock length lug bolts. Have fun as this is a really great way to refine the look of your car. Stefan
