Expert Buying Guide for 2016 Audi S4
The 2016 Audi S4 uses a 5x112 bolt pattern with a 66.6mm center bore. Aftermarket wheels often have a larger bore (e.g., 73.1mm), requiring hub-centric rings to prevent vibrations and ensure proper load transfer. The offset is critical: stock is 45mm, but a range of 35-50mm can fit with careful checking. Too low offset (e.g., 30mm) may rub fenders; too high (55mm+) can contact suspension. Always use the correct lug nuts: 14x1.50 thread pitch with a ball seat (Audi-specific). Conical seat lug nuts are unsafe and can cause wheel loosening. Re-torque after 50-100 miles.

Quick Tips & Safety Warnings
- ✅ Re-torque lug nuts to 90 ft-lb after 50-100 miles of driving.
- ✅ If using aftermarket wheels, verify hub bore and use hub-centric rings (66.6 to 73.1mm) to avoid vibrations.
- ✅ Avoid spacers unless necessary; if used, ensure extended lug bolts and verify offset remains within safe range.
- ⚠️ Confirm bolt pattern carefully. 5x112 is often confused with other common 5-lug patterns.
- ⚠️ Torque lugs in a star pattern to 100 ft-lbs (135 Nm), then re-check torque after 50-100 km (30-60 miles).
