Thanks man! Guess it is a bit early for snow tire talk, but always keeping an eye out for sales. Btw, didn't know 18" tires last longer than 19"?

Never too early...Depending on the option could take some time to get everything ordered. That's a bit of a general statement, a lot of variables at play...Should be able to get more tread on an 18" snow.

I think I will get one of the 19" options....just looks so much nicer with 19" wheels imo.

I got some Vorsteiners via vivid racing. Found them online. VFF 103s in black with red center caps. 20x10 +30. They said they'll fit. Going to wrap them with 275/35/20s. Michelin PS4S. Will post some pictures once I get them installed in the coming week. Wheels and tires should get to my installer early next week but won't install until next weekend.

Default 20x10 45 offset

Hi I'm trading in my 2014 audi A6 3.0T and getting a 2018 audi s5 sportback.

My question is will my 20x10 45 offset wheels fit on the new sportback?

They fit perfectly fine on my a6 with stock 255/35/20 tires.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you

Those will absolutely NOT fit. The offset is too high and they will bottom out on the caliper before the wheel pad hits the rotor hub.
You'll probably hit the steering knuckle too.

Yes, the only thing that may make them fit is a spacer kit (with longer wheel bolts) and the proper tire size.

Thank you for your responses and help.

Would a 10mm spacer make them fit?

Also would it be safe as long as I get hub centric spacers with longer bolts? No vibrations and such.

Thank you again

Sorry. Also if that is able to make them work. What tire size would you guys recommend?

255/30/20
255/35/20
265/30/20

Without any rubbing issues and least amount of change in speedometer.

Thank you

Hi guys,

Just wondering if these will fit the 2018 S5 Sportback. That offset has me worried. Also, would I need spacers to make them flush?

20x10.5 et27 square set up 5x112 bolt pattern 66.6 CB General G-MAX AS-03 90% left 255/35/20





Thanks!
