That would be true if both were 7J, but the Audi ones are 7.5J.

It happened to me last year and eventually the ballast went - cost a fortune as it had to be fixed then and there.

Freedom
Thanks for that - that is one of the tools that I used - but being a novice at this sort of thing there is always a lingering doubt.
I suppose I have to tell my insurance company when I put the summer tyres back on?

Octavia II Estate 2.0 TDI DSG
I have searched through the forum and have ended up very confused. I have just put winter tyres on my oem rims; 17x7J ET54 CB57.1 5x112, and I am trying to find matching rims for my summer tyres. The best that I have found are from an Audi A3 which are 17x7.5J ET56 CB57.1 5x112. I have looked at various best fit applications and they seem to confirm that there should not be a problem - wheels stick out about 4.5mm further and go further inboard by about 6.5mm. Had a look and there seems to be sufficient space to accommodate this.
Can anyone confirm that this is kosher? Tyres are 225/45/R17
Thanks

Former IAM (and RoADA) trainer here. I drive smoothly and economically and regularly see over 60mpg on the PID, but my Fuelly average is 54.
City driving is more like mid 40s. This is with the 75 PS non-BMT Up.

I think that Fuelly is an American site and probably uses US gallons.
