Mercedes and the Volkswagen Group use the 5x112mm bolt pattern And Mercedes and Audi use the same centrebore. Likely it is easier to get better supplier prices when using a configuration that is more of a standard.

Actually I think the A3 uses the VW centrebore of 56.1 with it being on the Golf MQB platform, as opposed to the larger Audis, but it is worth checking.

I did v710 19x8.5 et35 + 3mm spacer (=et42) 235/35/19 and 19x9.5 et50 265/30/19 and it's fantastic. I would never consider 225/255 on the same width personally, there's so little sidewall even with 235/265. This v710 fitment is off the shelf and as close to perfect for a 2 series as you can get. Not a single rub or contact ever even with front adjustable camber/caster bushings. I'll try to post a pic (seems to be hard on a phone)

Bought these a few weeks back but just got around to putting them on.
V703 19x8.5 ET40 Pilot 4S 225/35-19 V703 19x9.5 ET45 Pilot 4S 255/30-19 I think maybe the rears have way too much poke but I am going to give it week or so. |

Anyone running 18x8.5 235/40 front and 18x9.5 rear 265/35 on stock sports suspension without rubbing or issues? Please advise if you had to use negative camber or mods. Im thinking et 40 front and et 50 rear. Thanks.

just bought my 2019 m240ix. already looking for wheels. I love the vmr look. my car came with 19s but the fronts are x7.5 and the rears are x8. I would like to have a wider tire but idk if its worth it. I also plan on doing some autox but with these tires at 30 series I can feel the sidewall folding during hard cornering. wondering if I should just use these 19s for my winter set and buy either 18s or 19s for summer. or should I just keep these 19s and maybe buy better tires for them and buy a winter setup. ???

If you just do occasional autox then stick with the wheels you have. |
