If you are searching for the most ideal wheel & tire fitment for your B9 or B9.5 Audi RS5, you’ve come to the right place. Our B9/9.5 RS5 chassis-specific fitment guide covers all of our wheel & tire recommendations for the US production 2018-2019 B9 RS5, as well as the 2021-2025 B9.5 RS5 in both Coupe and Sportback body styles. The wheel fitments listed in this guide were developed from the ground-up for the RS5 chassis, offering a flush fit with the fenders while allowing you to run wider tires to increase performance both on and off the track. With that said, these VS-5RS 19” & 20” wheels will not only make your B9/9.5 RS5 standout aesthetically, but they will also vastly improve your overall grip and handling, as well.

Our RS5 specific VS-5RS wheels utilize a 5x112 bolt pattern with a 66.6mm centerbore, allowing you to fit them directly onto your Audi without the need for hubcentric rings. These wheels are also designed with OEM Audi-spec R13 ball seat lug recesses, so no need to swap any of your existing factory hardware with aftermarket lug bolts or studs. Simply bolt on and go!

Whether you are a casual weekend track warrior that still enjoys your car on the street, or a hard core racer competing for a spot on the podium, negative camber is a vital part of chassis setup that has many benefits. Not only will adding negative camber create more room for wider wheel and tire configurations, it more importantly improves handling, turn-in and tire longevity.
