What bolt pattern is an Audi RS3

It's 5x112 on both generations, and a Golf R shares it. The bore's 57.1 mm, so most designs want a ring. Factory bolts are ball seat and aftermarket wheels want conical. That front caliper is why a Golf R wheel doesn't automatically fit.

Will Golf R wheels fit an RS3

They bolt on and most of them don't clear. The RS3's front caliper is far bigger than the Golf R's and rejects thin spokes. The 8Y also wants a wider, lower offset front than any Golf ever ran. Set the 8Y up top rather than trusting the shared hub, and the ones that foul drop off.

Can I run a staggered setup on an RS3

Don't. A rear biased stagger is the wrong direction on this car, and quattro's the reason. It wants matching tire diameters at all four corners, so keep the diameter equal even if you vary the width. The 8Y left the factory wider at the front, which isn't what most people expect, and that's the proportion to copy.

What size wheels fit a 2019 RS3

The 8V came on a 19 and owners stay there, buying lighter rather than bigger. Spoke clearance to that huge front caliper is what decides which designs make the list. Tell us how the car sits and we'll keep the list to what clears.

Audi RS3 Wheels and Rims by Generation, 2017+

RS3 wheels are about the front axle. The 8V's front brake is an eight piston caliper, one of the biggest on this site, and the 8Y runs a wider tire up front than it does at the back. That reversed proportion is why a set bought as four of one spec doesn't work here. Tell us the year and trim and we'll show what clears.

Both cars are 5x112 with a 57.1 mm bore and ball seat bolts. It's the same hub a Golf R uses. That's the trap too, because a Golf R wheel bolts on and then meets the caliper. Copy the factory proportions or run a true square set with matching diameters, and quattro stays happy either way.
