Wanted 18" Alloys for S3

[jonathanhubbard]

I've got the standard 17" S3 alloys at the moment, wondered if anyone had the 18" ones for sale (same as on the TT, apparantly?)
How much would a second hand set of these go for if I can find them?

Thanks

Jon

Whats the offset?
Ive got a set of RS4 wheels to go

Make sure you have the right bolt PCD! A2, TT, A3 based on VW Golf platforms and components so have different PCD to rest of the Audis.

5x112 or 5x100?

check out ebay, seem to be lots of sets on there (both copies and OE, 17s and 18s)

Cheers,
John.

I have no idea what offset the wheels are - not too hot on this sort of thing! I've got a 52 plate 225 S3 if that helps?

The RS4/S4 wheels will not fit on the S3 due to the PCD being different. As for the offset its ET33 for OEM wheels and ET30 for replicas (AmD)

AmD do replicas for £112+vat each, and i believe that the Audi OEM ones are about £450 each !! (both without tyres)

Check the S3 forum as theres been some discussion on spacers etc.

Thanks Graham.

Audi said they can put some 18's (the same as on the TT) for £1000 including tyres. This seems quite a good deal then I guess if AmD do them for that price!

IIRC the AmD deal was £1050+vat with tyres, I brought my tyres seperately (due to them not having any at the time) and saved myself about £200 ! [img]images/graemlins/clap.gif[/img]

If Audi can do the alloys for £1K and they are OEM's, and it includes tyres, then I would go for them.
The others are replicas and they only come in around £100 - £150 cheaper...

When I enquired with Audi about a year ago they wanted £350 +VAT for each alloy without tyres [img]images/graemlins/24430-audibash.gif[/img]

Your price sounds like a bargain...
