Wanted Wheels for Audi A3 8L. 5x100pcd

[paulcalf]

Im after a cheap set of alloys (ideally with tyres) to replace my current ones.

Audi A3 1.8T sport. 8L. Year 2000
Currently on 16" wheels, but happy to replace with larger if they will definitely fit.
They don't even have to be audi wheels

Current wheels/tyres
5x100 PCD
7Jx16 ET31
205/55R16 91 V Tyres
Centre Bore 57.1mm
Thread size M14 x 1.5

I'm based in South Yorkshire

Please pm if you have anything suitable.

My current wheels are corroded and have slow punctures, its not worth getting them refurbished.

Thanks for looking

Thanks so much for that. I hadn't seen them.

A friend has just been over from Nottingham, he could have delivered them for me!

You're welcome Paul. I did think my Audi A1 Black Edition 5-spoke rotor wheels may have been of interest but for sure they do not meet with your financial requirements, lol. Hope these Nottingham wheels work out for you. Take care, stay safe

Ha, they are worth more than my Audi!

In fairness the wheels on my classic are also worth more than my daily driver!

Poor old audi, has done me proud.

That's GREAT news, Paul, I feel just the same: go Google '3380H RS3'

My first post was wrong as i got those sizes from google (wheels size.com)

I then looked at the full size alloy spare wheel which has 6.5J stamped on it. So updated the info on my wheels in a reply.

The Nottingham wheels may not be much better than my current wheels, so looking at other options.

TT wheels listed as:
16” facelift Audi TT wheels 5x100 Answer after I enquired:
Hi Yes they’re still available
They would be either 6.5 or 7j
Et would be between 37-42 for standard wheels and all the mk1 Tt centre bores are 57.1 (most early vag are)

I asked can you check if they are 6.5J: Answer: 7j et31.

Don't know if that extra info helps you know if they will fit
