u like the rims for the 96 a6? i was thinking of changing my old 100s rims for those

You do have the 92+ 100s, right? They won't fit on the earlier ones (4-lug).

i have 5 lugs

They have the wrong offset, but I think that they would fit on the newer bodystyle anyway. Just check first to be sure. You can get the factory ones from an A4 or an A6, they are the same wheel. It will look just like a 95-97 A6 :-)

what type of size -etc. would i look for new rims.. i want to get at least 15" now-- maybe 16" but i doubt it... thanks

Todd W

16" wheels and decent tires really improve the handling without sacrificing the ride. 15" wheels would be a little better in the snow, but the 16's are not too bad. The 16's also look more in scale with the rest of the car.

If you can find 17x7 ET45 then I don't see any problems, but 17" wheels are usually a lot wider. Lowering will actually make it more difficult to fit wheels under the car, but not by much. Ask Gary@Ronal what wheels will fit your car.
