MonzaA5

As the title says, what is the width and offset of the stock, non-sport, non-S line 18" wheel? I'm trying to get a set of winter wheels that match the OEM spec.

8 and 32mm, respectively. Also of importance is the centerbore diameter, 66.6mm

Thanks. The wheels I'm looking at are 18x8 ET35. Do you think the 3mm difference would make them look noticeably more "sunk in"? (I don't want to add spacers)

I think 3mm difference is not that of a big deal. By the way, what wheel and tire are you thinking of getting?

This is a gravity cast wheel, why not get a low pressure cast wheel, it's stronger and lighter.

Any particular suggestions?

This one is good. It's made in Germany and looks like the OEM S4 wheels.

I recently got the moda MD11 from tirerack along with the pirelli winter tires. It should be here next Monday and here are some mounted on the S4 from another thread:

Hmmm, that seems to be a copy of the E90 BMW 325i wheel. Not sure how good it would look on A5.

I like the Moda ones better. What tire size did you get?
