I just picked up a 2000 S4. I'm going to be getting some rims for it, but I wanted to get a little more information. My car is slighlty lowered so I don't want to get anything that will rub.

If I go with an 18" rim what offset do I want to look for?

Also what MM are the wheel studs on my car? 12, 14? Would I have to change those out?

Do you have to run spacers to clear the brakes?

Any tips or info you have that could help me out would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

get your suit on and pray people dont see this in the morning.

studs, they have wheel bolts. you'll probably need new ones since most aftermarket wheels need conical bolts, but the stock are spherical.

i'd say search the archives, but the search sucks. google the archives.

Andrew C.

are you saying you have studs on your car (some people have converted) or you're not sure?

we dont put rims on these cars, i know some people put wheels on them though

stock is et45. most aftermarket wheels for the s4 are et35.

Andrew C.

oh and the wheel bolts are 14, iirc.

I tried to retrieve my login stuff for the "other" forum, but it didn't recognize me. So I signed up for a new account, but never received my confirmation email that completes the process (done early in the day yesterday, no email as of this morning).

Can you hook me up?

Or maybe it's just the angle ;-)
