15" Audi Rims - Near New
Bought these recently off ebay in the hope of fitting them to my T3 Caravelle, unfortunately the do not fit over the "snout" of the front hub. The
rear hub / nut etc is fine.
I know I could get the bores machined out to accomodate the diameter of the hub, but the length of the "snout", particularly the grease cap &
speedo cable will not allow me to fit the centre caps. And I think they would look like crap with out them.
Having said all that I'm not familiar with the size of the "snout"on bay window vans & though it might be possible that they will fit a bay.
Details of the rims are as follows:
15"x 7"
5 x 112 PCD
ET45 (I was going to run them with a small spacer on the front)
Centre bore 57mm
Wheels are very close to new (I was told they where taken off the day the car was bought) there is only one small are of real damage on one rim.
(which my finger is pointing at) there are a few really light scuffs that havent shown up in the pictures.
Rims are located at Old Bar NSW 2430 (near Taree)
Happy to post / courier, meet people on the highway, or pick up from my place.
Asking $150
Send me a PM if interested
Cheers

Some more pics showing centre bore & cap details.
First pic shows offset, centre bore = 57mm
depth of hub from back face to the back face of the install centre cap = 55mm
reduced diameter of 49 mm is the diameter of the "clip" part of the centre cap.
second photo shows the centre bore with caps installed
third & fourth photos show back of centre cap & how far the "clip" extends out from the cap.
one more showing approximate dimension of my T3 hub for you to comapre against a bay???
Diameter 60mm is for the hub & the grease cap.
Diameter 63mm is for the lip that is on the grease cap
Length of 60mm is from the bolt face to the front of the grease cap
3mm is the grease cap to the tip of speedo cable
63mm total length
