Wheel Size & Offset at a Glance
| Configuration | Wheel Size & Offset |
|---|---|

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
A wagon carries wagon-specific weight distribution — more mass over the rear axle when loaded — so wheel strength at the rear corners matters as much as the front. Forging lets us match the factory's strength target on both ends while keeping rotational mass down, which keeps the ride composed whether the cargo area is empty or full.
The Audi RS4 Avant Nogaro selection runs a 5x112 bolt pattern, 66.5mm center bore, and a 20x9.0J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 20x10.0J ET20, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Audi RS4 Avant Nogaro selection. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 21x10.5J ET15 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Audi RS4 Avant Nogaro selection OE Wheel Specs
The 2014 Audi RS4 Avant Nogaro selection (Wagon) uses a 5x112 bolt pattern with a 66.5mm center bore. Factory wheels are 20x9.0J F/R.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Balances ride comfort with everyday fuel efficiency
- A widely used size in this segment, so tire and wheel availability stays strong
- Keeps unsprung weight low for stable, predictable handling
- Maintains clearance for the factory brake calipers and suspension components
Flush Fitment
For a flush look with minimal rubbing, F/R 20x10.0J ET20 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Audi RS4 Avant Nogaro selection.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
F/R 21x10.5J ET15 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Decision Guide
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 20x9.0J ET25 → ~5.98″ backspacing
- Flush: 20x10.0J ET20 → ~6.29″ backspacing
- Max: 21x10.5J ET15 → ~6.34″ 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 Audi spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Audi RS4 Avant Nogaro selection? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.

Wheel Installation Reference: Torque, Thread & TPMS
Thread & Fastener: M14x1.5, ball-seat lug bolt (13mm radius).
Factory Torque Spec: 120 Nm (89 ft-lb). Shared VW/Audi Group ball-seat bolt spec used across most 5x112 Audi models.
TPMS: TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) has been federally mandated on all new light vehicles sold in the US since the 2008 model year. If your wheels use OE-style sensors, have them transferred or cloned to the new wheels at installation.
Tire Pressure: Always set tire pressure to the value on your vehicle's tire placard (driver's doorjamb or glovebox), not the max PSI printed on the tire sidewall — this is trim- and tire-size-specific and stays the same reference point when you switch to a different wheel and tire combination.
Reference data compiled from published OEM service specifications and cross-checked against independent repair sources; always confirm against your owner's manual or door-jamb placard before installation.
