Default Any issues with A7\A8 wheels on an A6?
The only difference I see is they are 9" wide vs the 8.5, any issues with fittment and offset?

I have the S7 20 inch wheels on my A6. They are 20 x 9 with ET 37. Sport pkg A6 were 20 x 8.5 with ET 45 IIRC.

Can you post pics of those wheels on your car? Those are the ones I want.

The net is that the A7/A8 wheel (both 9" ET37 as someone else pointed out) will be pushed outwards by 14mm compared to the stock A6 wheels.

I use this tire calculator: http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel-Offset-Calculator

Stock A6 is 8.5 ET 45.

Up close does it just look like you have some spacers? Can you get a side shot looking down at the wheels?

They look amazing btw.
