2011 Audi TT wheel fitment and interchange guide

tl;dr

Match bolt pattern and hub first. Then check offset, width, and tire diameter with the on-page calculator. Test-fit and verify brake and fender clearance before committing.

Some trims and brake packages may vary. Confirm against your door-jamb label and Audi documentation. If your trim differs, use the calculator to compare.

Recommendation

I approach fitment in this order to save time and rework.

• Confirm hard constraints: 5x112 bolt pattern, 57.1 mm hub, M14 x 1.5 bolts.
• Use the calculator on this page. Set Installed on to 2011 Audi TT with the OEM size above.
• Enter the donor wheel or your Custom wheel size. Adjust rim width and offset.
• Enter a matching Custom tire size. The tool updates overall diameter as you change rim diameter.
• Review inner clearance to strut and outer poke to fender in the results.
• Aim to keep overall tire diameter close to OEM for speedometer accuracy.
• If a new wheel has a larger center bore, plan hub-centric rings to 57.1 mm.
• Match lug bolt seat type to your wheel and hardware. Do not mix seat types.
• Plan a physical test-fit on both front and rear before mounting tires.

Impact

• Offset changes move the wheel inboard or outboard, affecting fender and strut clearance.
• Wider rims can stretch or balloon tires and change sidewall support.
• Overall diameter shifts speedometer, ABS logic, and gearing feel.
• More poke can increase tramlining and fender liner contact at full lock.
• Inner clearance affects brake calipers, knuckle, and spring perch.
• Non-hubcentric mounting can introduce vibration at highway speeds.

Risks

• Bolt pattern mismatch will not seat correctly and is unsafe.
• Hub bore too small will not fit. Too large needs rings to center properly.
• Wrong bolt seat type can loosen under load. Verify seat shape visually.
• Offset too low or width too high can rub fenders or liners under compression.
• Offset too high can contact struts or control arms on turn-in.
• Brake caliper spoke clearance is wheel-design dependent. Measure or template-check.
• Spacers change load paths and require appropriate hub-centricity and bolt length. Verify thread engagement.
• TPMS hardware and frequency may vary by trim. Reuse or program accordingly.

Next actions

Checklist

• Gather donor wheel specs: diameter, width, offset, center bore, bolt pattern.
• Open the calculator. Compare Wheels from the donor to Installed on your 2011 Audi TT.
• Dial in Custom wheel size and Custom tire size until clearances look acceptable.
• Check brake caliper clearance using a template or straightedge and ruler.
• If center bore is larger than 57.1 mm, add hub-centric rings to your cart.
• Match hardware: M14 x 1.5 bolts with the correct seat for your wheels.
• Test-fit on the car. Spin by hand, turn lock-to-lock, compress suspension if possible.
• Mount and torque to the Audi spec from the owner’s manual. Re-torque after short mileage.
• Schedule an alignment if width or offset changed. Verify no rubbing under load.

Gotchas

• Staggered setups change rotation options and handling balance. Plan tires accordingly.
• Winter chains require extra inner and outer clearance. Confirm before buying.
• Aftermarket wheels can hide longer bolt tips. Check hub and parking-brake clearances.
• Some trims use larger brakes. If data is uncertain, validate by VIN with an Audi dealer.

Helpful tools and parts

• 57.1 hub-centric rings
• M14 x 1.5 wheel bolts - choose the correct seat type for your wheels.
• 1/2 inch drive torque wrench
• Digital caliper for measuring hub bore and bolt length.

If a value on your car differs, do not guess. Confirm with the calculator, your owner’s manual, and OEM sources before purchase.
