Audi Rs4 Reps 17in fit aswell. no spacers needed. think the bolt pattern is 5x112 or 5x111. fits with stock lugs too. using them as winter tires.

^^ i went to my tire guy and was like, i need winter rims that clear the brembo's. we took like 5 different rims that were close to 5x110, and with different offsets, and all 17'. needless to say these ones were the only ones to clear without any possible problems.
not sure how many audi/vw rims fit but if the bolt patten is close i bet you could get em on, without problems.

So you need at least a 17" to clear the brakes on the SS, eh? 16" is too small then?

I think those RS4 knockoffs look great, but I would be extremely nervous about running a slightly different bolt pattern. You might be able to get by in winter, but any high stress maneuver may cause problems with the studs. Was it hubcentric, or are you only counting on the studs, which are now also oddly tensioned, due to incorrect bolt pattern...

i agree, i would not run wheels that are not the same bolt pattern, the rs4's are probably 5x112 like the newer german stuff

Also, if those are true Audi/VW wheels, the seating area is rounded, not conical. That means your stock lug nuts aren't even made to sit in those holes.

they are pure knockoffs not true audi rims. they are infact 5x112. i dont know if its huncentric, but when we put the rims on we didnt need any hub spacers. it bolted on perfect with the stock lugs. the lug holes fit perfect. they have been on since the beginning of the month with no problems. ill pay more attention no to see if anything does occour.
i dont drive like a maniac anyways so i wont be putting to much stress there.

Thanks for posting those pics - you helped me make up my mind. Those are definitely the rims I want, with the red stripe on it. The red on the tire looks darker than the red of your car, which means it'll probably match a SRTC sedan pretty close to perfect!

(Hoping to wrap them in KDW-2s)

For the record, anyone who knows some guaranteed fitments, let me know and I'll post it on the first page. Just have to give me a couple days at times...
