Default BBS Wheels. How can you tell the exact size?

I bought four used BBS Wheels that I plan on mounting winter tires. How can you tell for sure the exact size of wheels? The only markings on these wheels that I can read are: 6J x 15H2, Audi "OE".

I have a Audi 200 tq20v that these wheels need to go on.

Thanks for your help.

Default Those won't fit.

6J x 15H2 are 6x15" wheels, there should also be another stamping on the wheel indicating ET45, for +45mm offset.
These BBS are for the 10Vt 200's.
I doubt these will clear your UFO brakes. Your stock BBS wheels have a 35mm offset. Roughly 1/2" more clearance.

If your UFOs have been converted to G-60s, they may fit.

Default Re: Those won't fit.

What if I don't have the UFO Brakes? Will they fit the 20Valve? My brakes have been converted to G60's. I found the other stamp you referred to as ET45 on the wheels.

I guess if they don't fit they will be going back on EBay.

Thanks for your help.
