Default Will these rims/tires fit w/o mods

I found a used set off a MB. Rims Front-19x8.5 (et32), rear-19x9.5 (et37). Any issues having different widths w/the quattro system? Also is there any difference in bolt pattern spacing between Audi & MB?

I think the hub diameter is different. I assume you know that you need to have the same rolling diameter for the tires. You may need spacers since our offset is ET29 for a 9" rim.

Front will fit but will sit about 10mm deeper into the fender well. Rear won't clear the inner suspension components. Bottom line......don't do it.

Vijay is pretty knowledgeable on this issue - I used his inputs to buy my Aftermarket wheels.
