    I am thinking of buying a set of the wheels below.

    and
    https://www.carid.com/1av-wheels/zx4...206439545.html

    My question is about the company, are they good or should I look into buying some other brand.

    Never really heard of them before, based out of Florida. The silver face only comes in 22" https://axewheels.com/zx4-2/

    Are you trying to get wheels for a 6 or 7?

    The 1AV 20x9 +40 is not very aggressive but fits, the 20x9 +25 is fairly aggressive at 24mm more poke. 15-20mm more poke is about what most people feel comfortable with. https://www.willtheyfit.com/index.ph...h=9&offset2=25

    Niche is old school, has been around for many years. 20x9 +38 fits, 20x10 +40 would fit too just more aggressive. https://www.willtheyfit.com/index.ph...=10&offset2=40

    Thanks for all the info, in your experience what would be the best fit for the Niche, I am going towards black wheels on my blue car.

    Do you have stock 20s that you would want to reuse the tires? If so the 20x9 works and is the safer offset. The 20x10 +40 should be on something like a 275/30-20 tire to not be overly stretched.

    Those will go on the 20x9 fine.

    The 38mm off set did not work, I will need to return the wheels and get a higher offset wheels.

    Would you recommend buying wheel spacers just enough to clear the caliper?

    Sounds like it is not clearing the calipers? Sorry, caveat to any offset is the wheel face is made to clear bigger calipers.

    The worst part is that I dont see any other nicer wheels that would fit the car.

    There are tons of wheels. What is hitting? The S car calipers (don't know if you have an A or S) don't have the curve at the bridge like a lot of big calipers do so this is a tight clearance when comparing to say a RS wave caliper.

    From what I was told it is the part where the S6 logo is printed. So I am guessing similar to your picture.

    Contact Mops@Nemesis autosport..... Just purchased a set of Vorsteiner 103's from him last month (still have not put them on as we had 5" snow last Sunday!!!). He was beyond knowledgeable regarding fit/offset and gave me a very competitive price!!! My setup is 20x9 ET 35 with the factory 255/35/20's that came on my 2018 S6 (I put winter tires on the factory Black Optic wheels), he informed me that an ET 30 would have been the perfect fit but Vorsteiner does not make that offset. I may look into 5mm spacers but I'm sure it will be fine.

    The bad part is that the shop I got it from wants to charge me 25% for restocking even though they said it would fit the car. I think I'll get a better deal selling them on the forums. For future reference stay away from BB Wheels.

    they said it would fit....in an email? if so throw that back at them.
    or chat with your credit card. they may be able to help with a refund or partial refund since you were sold something not as described.

    I started that process already and I will fight it until I get my refund.

    One more thought about this issue, how the hell does Niche Gamma M191 20x9 5x112 38mm fit on a RS7? I thought they are almost identical to an S6 in terms of brake caliper size.
