AMG rims on your Audis.

[vrsik]

Are any of you rolling on AMG or any Mercedes rims? I'd love to see pics..and what does it take to fit them on a B5?

Thanks.

same 5x112 bolt pattern...centers needed to be bored out...i forget the specs on the bore though...sorry no pics, but they look great imho.

I was going to get Carlsson rims for the A4, but it never panned out. Those wouldnt be bad. I saw a guy with Mercedes rims on apearl white A4. It didnt look terrible, but I wouldnt want the Mercedes three pointed star on my wheels

[moonturban]

Ah so I now know that 18"s will fit, how about the RS II 8 x 18 ones that audi sells..

[A4Jetta]

Looks nice.

AMG wheels are absolutely beautiful . . . when they're on a Mercedes.

If you Told me my Porsche wheels didnt belong on my old GTI I'd laugh at you. I'd throw AMG wheels on my Audi too..if a wheel fits right, and look good and go with the lines of the car I'm all for it. Who cares if they are "Exclusive" for a certain brand car?! I want to do either AMG Aero II Monoblocks or Carlsson 1/6 Evo diamond on my car, both of which are "Mercedes Only" wheels.

Im looking for some pictures of the 17x7.5/8.5 AMG wheels on an A4.

holy **** this thread is old

[jmullen324]

These are 18x8.5, just imagine them an inch smaller

[miggs]

I found this thread in my search. Figured I'd use it rather than start a new one about the same thing. I'm looking for a picture of the 5 spoke wheels. I should have been more specific.

[NeedingAnAudi]

the pirate used to run those sizes, I'll see if I can find a pic somewhere

[miggs]

Awesome! Thanks for the help guys. I must say it's pretty nice to be out of the mk2 forum for awhile.

I didn't need to bore out any holes or use any spacers or even get longer bolts, just hubcentric rings...

Nankang NS-II's
18x8.5 215/40-18 for fronts
18x9.5 225/40-18 for the rears

What are these wheels?

wow, just noticed that....

[miggs]

I brought it back for pictures.

Also I second you don't have to bore out the centers. They are actually larger and all you need is some hubcentric rings. If you buy a set from a user more than likely they will have the rings too.

You are thinking of the wrong holes. You do have to drill the bolt holes on some benz wheels.

i should have amg's after sowo

Twinsies?

[James Himself]

close, the ones im getting have smaller holes and more face, but still the 5 spoke monoblock design

[thepirate]

17x7.5/8.5 AMG monoblocks. Off a 2001 CLK I think, I can't remember off hand. Had to get the lug holes bored to 14mm. Older Mercs ran 12mm.

[miggs]

I just found that out when I picked mine up. What lug bolts did you use?

[thepirate]

You have to use the Audi lugs because thats what will fit in the hub. So you'll have to mill out the holes, its not hard. All you need is a steady drill and the right bit. Or you can do a stud kit.

[miggs]

The ones I have dont seem to be long enough. guess I'll just order some longer bolts.

[AbsoluteCarnage]

Came on vortex to get an answer to my problem, and what do you know the first thread title is exactly what i need. Hoping someone will know what im going through

I just bought some AMG wheels for the audi, i need to know where to get extended lugs for them. Ill need spacers for the rear or they wont fit. And for the front... for stance ;]

[jmullen324]

Ecstuning.com has them, but try ebay first. 14x1.5 I think.

[AbsoluteCarnage]

i just dont know how long i need them, or how long the stock mercedes lugs are
