Have one with the 18" Twister alloys (tires are 235/45/R18)
on order and did some research since I will be adding the 'Talledega' style Replica wheels that are also 18 X 8. Both the 'Twisters' and the 'Talladegas' have the same hub center bore of 57.1 with the only slight difference being the 'offset'. 'Twister' have an ET 48 & 'Talladegas' 45. Both wheels have the 5 X 112 bolt pattern. The actual bolts are 14 X 1.5 X 27. Did wonder if I needed to move up to a an 'X 30' bolt because of the 'slight' 3mm difference in the offsets but the wheel sellers I spoke to didn't think it would be necessary. I did find the 'X 30' size listed for Audi and for Porsche as well, including generic ones too on Ebay. May not see the car until November because the six speed manual cars seem to be scheduled behind the other 'automatic' models. |
