What do you mean? Diameter wise? Bolt pattern?

Like, what determines what tires/rims will fit on my A4?
Size, bolt pattern, offset?

Default Wait i can give you a bit better advice

choose your rim diameter

if you are on stock suspension you can run
20 19 18 17 16

then this has to be the bolt pattern 5 x 112

then the width... well im running 8.5 you can run narrower or wider, but your going to need to pick the correct offset so it clears your brakes + doesn't rub on control arms

from there you are going to have to pick your tire, that is a totally different ballgame

you need to kind of think of the tire at the same time as the rim

but im going to take a wild guess and say you're just looking for some bling?

Wow, HAHA! Sorry, what I should've probably said was that someone's trying to sell me his Falken Torque 5 rims. I have no idea how to find how if they would fit on my car. Sorry for the vagueness. -_-

Default oh... well bolt pattern has to be 5x112

stock rims are 17x7

you should tell us the size, and we'll tell you if they'll fit

Ah. Thanks man. =D

I was just gonna get those cause I thought they looked better than my rims, and the guy was selling me the tires along with the rims for less than $500.

I really appreciate the help. I think I'm gonna look for rims I KNOW that fit already instead.
Thanks again. =D

Oh and by the way, my rims are 16"s. I'm not sure exactly what though. 16 x ?
