Hi Guys

The 17 x 7.5 wheels on my A4 are looking a bit shoddy, seen a nice pair the same size and with the 5x112 PCD and with an offset of 50.

How does this compare to the standard offset? Anyone know?

If it makes any difference its a 2.0 TFSI S line B7

Thank you

The standard wheels will be between ET45 & 48 depending on what ones they are. ET50 will sit further INTO the arches (admittedly only 2mm per side). I'd guess they are A3 ones as aftermarket A4 ones tend to be between ET38 & 45 hence pushing them out a bit making the car look meaner.

Thanks for that. 2mm is not likely to be noticable eh and there should be sufficient tolerances for that.

Game on
