Are these factory C5 wheels?
Re: Are these factory C5 wheels?
Definitely not inevitable - just matching the ware to the current condition, since the car was exposed to A LOT of sun
A garage changes everything. Have a 40 year old 911 and the leather looks factory new compared to the RS6.
Anybody has any input on the wheels ? Sorry to
Keep asking. In case I get the car, just wanted to find out what they are. Prefer to put factory 18s.

Re: Are these factory C5 wheels?
Most factory were 19 I think.
Re: Are these factory C5 wheels?
I wouldn’t put 18’s on. There was an 18” factory option but the no-cost option 19’s look better in my opinion.

Not rapt in the 18 inch wheels. There is a whole range of Audi from the 2000 era that use that design and only the detail is different. At least the 19 inch is pretty well unique which the car deserves.

The 18's were a no cost option as a way of being able to fit decent snow tyres on the 6 if i recall correctly
Re: Are these factory C5 wheels?
18’s were standard, 19’s were the no-cost options. The winter wheels are different again.

Not c5 originals
Saw a c6 on here with them.
My originals were knackered, split and welded and had 5 mm horrible spacers fitted to the front to stop them fouling the calipers.
These are a lovely fit.
