Bora runs the smaller PCD than the Audi, IIRC 100mm as opposed to 112mm. If I'm right, then you will need one of
a) Adapters
b) Redrill your hubs

If you are talking about wheels with low offset (ie, 25mm) you will probably be in luck as the chances are you would need 15-25mm spacers in orders to clear get the ET somewhere back in the correct region. That will be ideal as typically that is the size of bolt on adapters.

I am guessing the Bora arches are going to be similarly spacious to the Golf arches, in which case there is loads of room so assuming the correct offset is obtained and that you aren't talking about 10" wheels you will probably be in luck. I ran 245/18s on my Golf and there was plenty of room for bigger/wider

The Bora is a PCD 5x100. The wheels are PCD 5x112. I used adaptors to get them to convert and fit my bora! No arch mods were required!

There a 8.5x19" wheel with a offset of 45

Hope that can help Jon!
