21x10.5 ET20 with Ceramics
Is this wishful thinking in regards to fitment?
I've spotted the TSW Bathurst in ET32 but want more aggressive and thinking of ET20 given stock is ET25
Any pointers would be appreciated.

I came across another thread over on Audizine and if I were you I'd avoid the TSW as they appear to be even worse than OEM RS6 spoke wheels for buckling!

Re: 21x10.5 ET20 with Ceramics - Will it work?
Specifically with the Bathurst or other wheels? The Bathrust is forged so I'd expect it to be better than the OEM Audi wheels.
Re: 21x10.5 ET20 with Ceramics - Will it work?
Where have you seen ET20? ET32 and ET41 are your only options in that size.
I looked at these wheels a lot in the past. However, they don't seem to be agressive enough looking for me in the right size. I think you need a car will small brakes to make these wheels work.
Re: 21x10.5 ET20 with Ceramics - Will it work?
Yes a few of the US guys have been running the Bathurst and they are "Rotary Forged" which is the same as flow-forming or flow-forged i.e. not fully forged. When my OEM's were looked at for buckling the tyre specialist thought they might be flow-forged also.MikeFish wrote: ↑Tue Oct 24, 2017 7:09 pmSpecifically with the Bathurst or other wheels?

I don't think we can link other Audi forums on here so I can't show the specific link.

Re: 21x10.5 ET20 with Ceramics - Will it work?
Well i pulled the trigger and ordered a custom set of BC forged wheels in 21x10.5 ET20 squared.
Agree the TSW were a good low cost option but seems most people have had issues with the quality and strength.
Pics to follow post install once they have finished being made.
Stand by.
