Default Tire Problems?

Hi All,

I own a 06 a3 and I purchased a set of winters that came off an a4. I tried putting them on and the bolt pattern does not line up properly. It is totally off. I am looking at the steelies and they say:

JD601 DIn
0271
T5
6 1/2J
16H2
50
98

I'm not really clear what any of this means, but shouldn't they fit? I though all a3's and a4's are 5x112?

Please let me know!

That is strange, because I believe you are right. 5 x 112 for both the A4 and A3. What year was the A4, maybe the older ones had a different bolt pattern?

The guy I purchases from says it's from 07 a4? I think I got swindled.

Something is definitely strange here. Yes, wheels of an 07 A4 should fit.
