What width are the alloys?

for pictures, do the following:

Sign up to an image host site like photobucket

Upload the pic you require

Once it's uploaded, copy the link under the image that starts with [img],%20and%20ends%20in[/img].

Paste it into the reply bar, happy days.

tyres that are 225 wide will not fit.

if its old s3 yes cos the stud pattern 5x100 but new s3 is 5x112 so wont fit!!! and you will need 205/40/17 tyres or 215/35/17 tyres!

so if i changed the tyres from 225/45/17s to 215/35/17s they'd fit

They'd fit with the tyres that are on there now, but you'll get incorrect speed readings etc.

Therefore ideally you want a 40 profile tyre.
