wheel and tire compatibility
Hello there I just picked up a 2018 Audi A5 Coupe. Traded in my 2015 A3 Quattro. Now this is probably a stupid question so forgive me. In January I purchased winter alloy replica rims and tires 225/R40/18 for my A3 and wondered if I would have any issues fitting them to my A5 for the winter. Obviously they are narrower and the offset is different but I am curious if they would still fit without any concerns?

Thank you sir. So am I correct in assuming that with a larger offset the concern here is it will rub against the bodywork?

Larger offset = wheels further in towards the hub. they will look ridiculous at best, wont clear the brakes at worst.
The S5 has much wider fenders than the A3/MQB platform.
