Do you guys know if the standard B6 S4 alloys fit the B5 S4?..

Cheers

Rotta..

Yes they do.

Look great too, you may or not need spacers, I needed spacers with 235's but didn't need them with 225's.

Yes, got a set on mine. If they're definately ET35 they'll fit straight on..

I think the ET35 are the replica ones, IIRC mine are ET43? (As mikey states below the OEM ones are ET45)

Sorry.. my mistake. I meant ET45...

Here's mine:


I've got 5mm spacers up front and 10mm spacers at the back to fit over my RS6+ brakes.

What ET? ET45 + 5mm spacer isn't that wide, or? :)

Looks great, BTW!

My front brakes have large belsl, hence the wider spacers at the rear to maintain a similar track.

Welcome to the site.

Clearance issues are
brakes at the front
and the suspension upright on the inside of the rim at the rear,
that's what the spacers are for so it depends on the tyres/front brakes.

What about S8 Avus-es? (18x8)

I believe spacers are needed?

Yes they do.

I ran 235s on mine without spacers although as mentioned above clearance on the rear suspension upright was tight. I may have posted a pic of this a while back......can't remember

Not all tyre manufacturers 235s will be exactly the same width so some may fit better than others. The wheels I had came with Dunlop SP Sport 01 tyres.

my wheels needed 5mm spacers as the fronts catch on the brake caliper just enough to take the paint off they are standard size ebc grooved dicsc and new pads make it too tight and its tight on the rear suspension arm with 235's on so 5 mm allround with a standard setup

Where can I find B6 OEM rims and how much will they roughly cost?

You seem to be able to pick up a decent set for around £300-400 these days. Put a 'Wanted' post up in the classifieds here, or there's always eGay.

i'm having to put 10mm spacers on my b6 wheels now i didnt like the non hubcentric 5mm jobbies and the 235 tyres dont have enough clearance for my liking about 6mm. a bit gutted about paying £100 for the 10mm ones tho
