I bought some replica RS6 alloys wheel off someone advertising on eBay. They came quickly and I fitted them this morning. Driving around all day and I got stopped by the police they informed me that my front wheels were illegal as they protuded from the wheel arches.
I've just had the front wheel off to check the offset and noticed that the wheels are 8.5 x 18 and not 8 x 18 as I thought and as they eBay advert said.
Anyone else had this problem. I must admit when I fitted the wheels I thought the tyres didn't fit very well and they looked considerably wider than I thought they would.
I haven't spoken to the guy I bought them from yet that'll have to wait till tomorrow!
