Most wheels that fit straight on a D2 will be around ET45, but the exact figure should be stamped on the wheels.
And I think 18" Avus are usually 8" whereas FE's are 8.5" from a D2 or 9" if from a D3.

18 x 8J ET36 is all you need to know, they're multi hole so will fit loads. Don't need to ask PCD they've come off a D2 so have to be 5x112 in one set of holes or they'd have not come off an D2 or any other VW group car from around that era. They'll fit A3, A4, A6, Seat, Skoda, Vw. obviously with 225x40x18

Just advertise them as 18" 9 spoke, multi hole replicas. for 150 notes. If someone wants to know the manufacturing codes, who made them and where, will they fit a Austin Allegro ect buy genuine wheels straight from the dealer.
