How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements

Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.

ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice

Wagons split the difference between sedan agility and load-carrying duty, and the wheels have to serve both roles. A forged wheel holds the same structural margin as the factory piece while trimming rotational weight, which benefits both the empty-car handling and the loaded-car ride.

The ABT Audi allroad quattro runs a 5x112 bolt pattern, 57.1mm center bore, and a 18x8.5J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 19x9.0J ET15, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height ABT Audi allroad quattro. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 20x9.5J ET10 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.

ABT Audi allroad quattro OE Wheel Specs

The 2002 ABT Audi allroad quattro (Wagon) uses a 5x112 bolt pattern with a 57.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are 18x8.5J F/R.

Why the factory spec works for most owners:

  • Balances ride comfort with everyday drivability
  • A commonly used size for this vehicle class, supporting parts and tire availability
  • Maintains clearance for the factory suspension and brake components
  • Provides stable, predictable handling across normal driving conditions

Flush Fitment

For a flush look with minimal rubbing, F/R 19x9.0J ET15 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered ABT Audi allroad quattro.

Maximum Aggressive Fitment

F/R 20x9.5J ET10 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Real-World Reference Cases

The examples below are compiled from typical ANKUSI customer configurations and are labeled as reference cases, not individually verified real-world builds.

Case 1: Daily Driver (Factory-Style)

Profile: Everyday driving, prioritizes comfort and low running cost.

Setup: 18x8.5J ET25

Cost: ~$620

Outcome: Minimal visual change, ride and fuel economy essentially unaffected.

Case 2: Balanced Enthusiast (Balanced / Flush Fit)

Profile: Wants a sportier stance without sacrificing daily usability.

Setup: 19x9.0J ET15

Cost: ~$3,000

Outcome: Noticeable visual upgrade, fuel economy drop within the expected range.

Case 3: Show Build (Max Aggressive)

Profile: Built primarily for shows or occasional track/show use.

Setup: 20x9.5J ET10

Cost: ~$5,500

Outcome: Maximum visual impact; daily comfort and fuel economy are heavily compromised, physical test fit required before production.

Decision Guide

1
What's your primary use? Daily commuting → Tier A/B. Weekend street driving → Tier B/C. Show or occasional track use → Tier D/E.
2
What's your budget? Under $800 → Tier A. $800-3,400 → Tier B/C. $3,400+ → Tier D/E.
3
How much does fuel economy matter? Very important → Tier A. Somewhat important → Tier B/C. Not a priority → Tier D/E.
4
Still unsure? Tier C (Balanced / Flush Fit) is the default choice for most ABT Audi allroad quattro owners.

Offset & Backspacing Reference

Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):

  • OE: 18x8.5J ET25 → ~5.73″ backspacing
  • Flush: 19x9.0J ET15 → ~5.59″ backspacing
  • Max: 20x9.5J ET10 → ~5.64″ backspacing

Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact abt spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your ABT Audi allroad quattro? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.

Frequently Asked Questions

What bolt pattern (PCD) does the ABT Audi allroad quattro use?
The 2002 ABT Audi allroad quattro uses a 5x112 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the ABT Audi allroad quattro use?
The ABT Audi allroad quattro uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x112), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the ABT Audi allroad quattro?
The ABT Audi allroad quattro's center bore is 57.1mm. If an aftermarket wheel has a larger center bore than this, hub-centric rings are recommended so the wheel centers on the hub itself rather than relying on the lug bolts alone.
What size are the factory (stock) wheels on the ABT Audi allroad quattro?
Factory wheels on the ABT Audi allroad quattro are 18x8.5J F/R.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my ABT Audi allroad quattro without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 20x9.5J at ET10 offset. Going beyond this typically causes rubbing under compression unless you roll the fenders or add camber correction.
What does a flush wheel fitment look like on the ABT Audi allroad quattro?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 19x9.0J at ET15 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered ABT Audi allroad quattro.
Do I need wheel spacers for my ABT Audi allroad quattro?
No. ANKUSI forges each wheel to your exact target offset, including the flush or max specs above, so you get the correct fitment without stacking spacers. Spacers are typically only used to push out an existing OE-offset wheel without replacing it, which isn't necessary when you're ordering a custom-offset forged wheel.
How do I calculate wheel backspacing for my ABT Audi allroad quattro?
Backspacing (in inches) = wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance). For example, the flush spec above works out to roughly 5.59" of backspacing.
What's the difference between wheel offset and backspacing?
Offset is the distance in millimeters from the wheel's true centerline to its mounting face (positive offset pulls the wheel in, negative pushes it out). Backspacing is the distance in inches from the mounting face to the back edge of the wheel barrel. They describe the same fitment from two different reference points, which is why ANKUSI lists both above — some shops and tuning guides quote offset, others quote backspacing.
Can I run staggered wheels (different sizes front and rear) on my ABT Audi allroad quattro?
The ABT Audi allroad quattro runs the same wheel size front and rear from the factory, so staggered fitment is not required. ANKUSI can still forge a staggered set (wider rear) on request if you want a more aggressive stance.
