Can I fit alloy wheels from an Audi onto my Nissan?

Question

I have a 1995 Nissan Primera with 4 stud alloy wheels and I want to know if wheels from a 1998 Audi A4 would fit straight onto my car without having to make any modifications. Any ideas?

Both the Audi wheels and the Nissan are 4 stud.

The wheel itself should fit under the arch, I need to know if the hubs the wheel fit onto and the distance of the wheel bolts are the same on both cars.

Answer 1

Audi wheels used to have 3 different stud patterns:
4-stud - 100mm PCD
4-stud - 112mm PCD
5-stud - 112mm PCD
I'm not sure if these are still the norm.

You'll need to measure it on both your car and on the Audi wheels. PCD is easy to measure on a 4-stud wheel - measure from the outside of one bolt hole to the inside of the opposite one.


You'll also need to know if the wheel offset is the same, or you'll be putting different stresses onto your steering and suspension components which could lead to a catastrophic failure. The offset is the measurement in millimetres between the wheel centreline and the mounting face, and will be stamped or embossed on the wheel, usually on the outer face near the bolt holes, underneath the centre cap if there is one, and is preceded by the letters "ET" (e.g. ET38 is a 38mm offset).

Most Audi alloy wheels are made by BBS or Ronal. The same design of wheel may be available from the manufacturer in a size to suit your car even if that size doesn't suit any Audi.

Answer 2

It depends on the PCD of the wheels. (The distance between the wheel nuts). Take a ruler and measure the distance, that is how you find the PCD out. Good luck!

Answer 3

differant stud pattern unless they are universal alloys, the u should be fine, if not ur scr ewed

Answer 4

depends on the size of the roof rack

Answer 5

sure if they're both the same size.. if not u'd have to get new tires..
