Standard rims

1
I have looked at the latest image downloaded by one bellrmit and i am
wondering if the rims on the 90model syncro camper are OME?
I have seen something similiar before but they were Merc rims.
Can anyone enlighten me as i will be chasing some soon.
I have also been looking into the 15inch audi A4 rims and have heard
mixed stories as to their fitment, or fitting alignment. something to
do with the centre bore or hub having to be re-drilled?
Cheers

Andrew,

 

I’ve run the A4 rims (15 x 6) for 10 years now. You have 2 options for fitting. The centre hole can be machined (only about 0.5mm I think). You could possibly try doing this yourself, as I believe they are ‘stud centric’ rather than ‘hub centric’. I.E. they ‘centre’ on the studs, rather than the centre hole. (at your risk though!!). Alternatively, as I’ve done, you can use 10mm spacers, which returns the offset close to standard, and also removes the need for machining. You will need longer studs with the spacers, however.

I think they are Aussie made merc rims.
