RS2 wheel off set

[Glen Chamberlain]

Well i've just learnt what an off set is!!! WOW! So iam gonna use my new found wisdom and ask, "whats the off set on the standard RS2 wheels? (are they 5x???, ET ?? Opposed to the 5x112 ET37 of the 16" standard Avus?)

Thanks Guys! fill in the gaps please!!

First gap is 5x130. The other one I don't know.
I have them installed on my ABY coupe and the do fit with RS2 hubs on front and H&R adapters on the rear.

BTW if anybody know of a Porsche hub that was build for a 75mm bearing (S2 rears) and thinks it could fit into the S2 coupe please tell me.

RS2 wheels are 5x130mm and ET51-55mm

Whats H&R adaptors?

H&R adapters are a special kind of spacers that transform the bolt patterns for different applications. Mostly everything to Porsche 5x130mm
You just bolt the adapter to the hub+disc assembly and then you just put a Porsche wheel and lock it with Porsche nuts (Black Aluminium in my case)
I just installed them a month ago.
Made some hard runs with it. Some cornering braking tests and it works perfect.

If you select Audi in the top right of the page you will get the part numbers.
Width can go from 30mm (2x15mm adapters) up to 100 mm (2x50mm adapters) I have (2x25mm fitted after measuring aprox the clearence this wheels needed without the Porsche hubs on the rear.

I have attached a picture but not sure if it is going to work

Thanks for the H&R explanation!
Anyone got the full dimensions of the 17" RS2 and 16" AVUS wheels? i.e width etc

[Mikes2]

RS2 wheels are 17x7 and S2 avus are 16 x 7.5 all in inches

[Glen Chamberlain]

Thanks! I would have expeceted the RS2 wheels to be wide than the S2's?? The S2's are 1/2" wider than the RS2's? Have i read that right?

[Mikes2]

Yes - that is correct.

When the RS2 was released, there was only 1 tyre specified for use in the correct size 245x40 ZR17 - Dunlop SP8000. these are no longer available so you cannot fit that size of tyre with any other make.
