Alloy wheel fitment

[Doodles]

Hi,I would be grateful if someone could answer this question for me,

Will alloys from a A6 with fitments of 16" 5x112,ET45,7.5Jx16 fit onto my A3 with size of alloys as 5x112,ET50,6.5Jx16 with tyre size of 205/55/16?

I have no knowledge of what these numbers mean so would be appreciated if someone could enlighten me

thanks in advance.

I think you'll find they have different PCD (distance from each stud within the hub)....worth trying one up on the car to see that you have the right clearances, etc

Thanks for that Trevor,pretty sure they have the same Pcd but do as you suggested just make sure.

Thanks again.

Hello Paul,

I'm not going to be much use to you, but you do appear to be asking whether wider profile tyres ( via. wider wheels) will fit your car. Trevor has already mentioned the stud distance consideration, but you are also likely to have a width consideration which needs looking into in terms of inner arch clearance on full lock etc.

One other thing I would mention Paul is the recommendation to notify your insurers if you do fit non original wheels ( if not specified as an optional size for your model). Failure to do so might - just might- run the risk of invalidating your insurance in the event of a claim. Apologies that this sounds rather off putting, but often wise to check before going ahead.

Goid luck anyway,

Kind regards,

Gareth.
