Noob needing help regarding wheels...

Featured Replies

Hello all, 

I picked up my 2008 A3 S Line today, its a 1 owner car with only 69k on the clock.  The car is standard (for now) and in excellent condition however the 5 spoke S Line alloys have been kerbed and scuffed by the previous owner so I'm looking at changing them. 

My question is, I want to stick with 18's but can I buy a rim that would allow the wheel once fitted, to sit flush with the arch or will I have to buy spacers? 

Also the car is silver and I am needing inspiration with regards to design, whether to go to a black rim or silver? 

Any photos to give me some ideas will be appreciated. 

Thanks in advance 👍👍

I think you'll need spacers in my opinion. 

You can't go wrong with black or gunmetal grey wheels. The only problem is, if you curb them it's more noticeable.

Cheers

Steve
