Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 8T/8F wheel fitment

A5 / S5, wider 19-inch road setup

Front and rear
19 × 9.5 inch, ET33 · 255/35 R19

Documented on a B8.5 A5. Check outer clearance if lowered and confirm the particular wheel clears S5 brakes.

A5 / S5, 20-inch road setup

20 × 9 inch, ET35 · 265/30 R20

Reported on a facelift S5 cabriolet. Check the wheel load rating for the body style and test clearance through suspension travel.

Width and offset guidance

Offset range

Check the exact setup

There is no confirmed range for this car yet. Compare a known wheel with your proposed size and measure both sides.

Common width limit

Measure before ordering

A maximum width has not been confirmed. Tyre shape, ride height and alignment all change the available space.

These figures belong to the setups described here. Combining the widest wheel with either end of the offset range does not guarantee a safe fit. For how ET moves the wheel in and out, read wheel offset explained; for how far the tyre can sit out, see flush, poke and tucked fitment.

Clearance notes

  • The hub is usually sold as 66.6 mm; 66.56 mm is another published description of the same fitment. A 57.1 mm Golf wheel does not fit over this hub.
  • Factory wheels use radius-seat bolts. Match bolt seat and length to the replacement wheel.
  • RS5 wheel diameter alone does not prove brake clearance, particularly with ceramic brakes. The popular examples are for A5/S5.
  • Keep matching tyre sizes and compatible rolling circumferences on quattro cars.
  • Check full steering lock and suspension travel with the car loaded. Match wheel load rating, tyre load and speed ratings, fastener seats and brake clearance.
