Default What is needed to fit a E class or C class Mercedes wheel on A4?

The wheel is a Lorinser LM-5 and its
18 X 8.5 5X112 et 35 so it should fit theoretically but I dont know about the center Hub ring.

5x115 versus 5x112. I think you would have to redrill.

Default You will need a centering ring...

MBs and Audis are both 5X112, but the Audi Hub is slightly smaller. I am running rims(Enkei Aegis 3 pc.)drilled for Benz and have no problems. Don't try to run them without the rings or you will get a nasty case of the shimmies.
