Default 19's on 09 A5

Hey guys,
Nubile to the forum here. I have an 09 A5 3.2 coupe with 18's on it. I want to put the Audi 5 spoke 19's on it. Does anyone know if there are any issues? This is a non S-line model....

Appreciate your help!

If they are factory A5/S5 wheels then yes, they will fit without issues. But not so with 19's from other models, even if they look the same.

There are basically 5 dimensions to consider when it comes to wheels. Diameter, width, bolt pattern, center bore and offset. For more information on these, go to Tire Rack website read more about them.

Also don't forget the center bore diamater - our cars require 66mm center bore. A wheel with a larger center bore may work if you use mounting adapters, but a wheel with a smaller center bore can't be used unless it goes through an expensive boring process (which depending on the wheel may not even be possible).

Great point, I forgot about that one. Thanks for pointing it out.
