Which Alloy Wheels RS6 brake fitment for S4

Post by saf » Mon Oct 30, 2006 3:05 am

Hi can anyone who has information on this please reply.

Im looking for a set of 18 inch alloys for my car as an upgrade to my 17 inch avus wheels so i can fit a set of rs6 brakes.

I want to keep the 225 40 18 tyre profile that is usually used.

The problem im having is finding a set of alloys with direct fitment for RS4 B7 Discs and the RS6 calippers.

I dont want to be adding custom brackets or spacers.

So if anyone who now what alloys will allow direct fitment of this kit, then please add a post.

Im looking for something standard, not to complicated, less spokes the better. And preferbly something that wont easily get kerbed or scuffed.

I was counting on the RS6 ones because they are plain and simple and at the same time very nice. Unfortunately those wont fit. Gone off the idea of mtm reps.

Any other ideas then please do post.

Many thnaks

BBS CH 8.5x18 et35
OZ Superleggra 8x15 et35
BBS CK 8x18 et35

The above fitted without any spacers etc.

Any others?

I like my car looking stock and these look too bling fo rmy liking.

B6 Rs4 reps any good?

I dont mind going for B6 avus reps if they will fit. Not sure if they do reps for these anyhow. Searched and couldnt find anything.

B6 (avus) 18"'s are et45. I think you will need 10mm spacers for rs6 brakes. my brakes are standard and i needed 5mm spacers. i have never seen avus reps.

MTM bi-moto 18" reps, ET35, no issues and don't look bling IMHO

I think you might find they are genuine. So the For Sale Ad for the car said...

They are reps - non genuine centre caps, and no audi numbers on them - 5mm spacers iirc - had me fooled until i took them off the car.

Thanks Doug. Might be back to the first alloy i wanted which is the MTM reps.

Are there any issues at all with these or are the reps all pretty much the same.

Ive just been offered some with 235 40 18 on them. Very tempting,and if its a straight fit ill most certainly have to get them.

I think the B6 reps are easily kerbed.

Anyone know if the mtm reps are easily kerbed too?

SO I take it , an RS4 B7 brake disc and RS6 plus callipers will go straight on with no modifications at all with the mtm reps?

Quality good aswell?

My dealings with the garage that had the car advetised weren't good so hearing that doesn't supprise me. I was a little worried making the statment knowing you have had the wheels off.

CliveH had genuine B6 S4 wheels over RS6 calipers with B7 RS4 discs. Also had spacers, can't remember how thick though...

Too much hassle to do these for my liking

Can u believe audi charge £75 quid + vat for centre caps.

It's down to care of course, but it does help if you fit 235/40 tyres

Yep :thumbs:

Im in love

Just saw these and thinking about them

They come in 5/112 et 35

Not sure about fittment.

Will i have any problems with these?

I think im down to 2 sets. Just depends on fittement i guess. If they both fit i need to decide which set i want.

MTM reps

or these.

Anyone fitted rs6 set up with these? They are Audi TT quattor cup reps
