Winter Wheels

[ernieh]

Hi All,
I was thinking of selling my winter wheels from my last cars (Mercedes W204/5, but when I checked it out, its seems that they may be compatible with my new Q2 Sport. Data is as follows:

Q2: 215/55 R17, 7.0J, ET45, 5x112
Merc: 225x50 R17, 7.5J, ET 47, 5x112

I have checked a comparison site and the difference seems minimal, so they would seem to be compatible, but wondered if you can see if there is anything I have overlooked.

Many thanks,

Ernie

Is the Audi centre bore 66.6 or do the wheels have spigot rings ?

Thanks for the question. I'm not sure of the answer...but the Merc centres on the centre bore as far as I know. Pardon my ignorance, but what are spigot rings?

Yes thanks, the question is now answered...Audi bores are 57.1 as against 66.6 for the
Merc, so the answer is spigot rings.

I'd just double check the load rating too, although between W204/5 and a Q2 I don't think you'll be too far adrift!
