Audi B8 A5 Wheel Fitment
Written by Dion on September 16, 2008 – 2:43 pm -Last Friday I mentioned we got another sneak-peak at the B8 A5. This silver S-Line was brought to us by a potential customer who was kind enough to let us take a brake template from his car so we can get a good idea of the types of wheels we’ll have available for this car.
Of course we had to take as many pictures as we could to “soak-in” the beauty that is the B8 A5…
The 66.6mm center bore and high offset specs on the B8 A5s make it difficult for the majority of our current line-up to fit so we’re working on bringing in some new wheels…
We then took the new Hartmann HS5-209 wheel in 19×8.5 (et25) and threw on a set for comparison. The factory wheel is the same diameter and width but 7mm further in so you can see how a 7mm difference in offset gives the car just that slight “edge” and makes for a bit of an aggressive look.
The car will be back to have H&R coil-overs installed soon so you can expect updated pictures then.

Audi is a great car, great handling, interior and when you get the right Audi some high HPs, also they hardly rust.
