Rotor wheel difference

[Derek Gannon]

Hi all,
Apologies if this has been asked before but I can’t seem to find a clear answer.
Basically just want to know what the difference between A4/s4 rotors(19s) and A5/S5 rotors.
Have a an sline avant and wanting to fill the arches out a bit more. So just inquiring if I’d be better to buy a set of the A5/S5 rotors or add spacers to mine.
Thanks in advance for any information you may be able to pass on.

The s5 rotors are 1/2” wider and a lower offset so sit nearer to the arch. They also have a lot more concave to them so when viewed at an angle, sort of make the car look wider.

Even rough sets in need of a full refurb seem to fetch strong money

A5 Rotors 19 x 9 et 33

I've got a set of Genuine A5/S5 rotors for sale in classified's.

@JG51 AUD I’d say cost of shipment to Dublin Ireland might be too dear, thanks anyway, il keep a look for some a bit closer to home

I was advised if I was to lower it then use 5mm spacers giving ET38 to be safe of rubbing. I don’t have spacers as it looked much better lowered as you can see. I tried spacers but didn’t really fill the arches as only pushed the wheel out.
