Butter180,

I'll take some picture tomorrow if its not raining. You should have no problems with these Hartman 22s" I cant remember the offset is, but its pretty close to the edge of the fender, I would say if I added a 5mm spacer, it would put it right at the edge.

How did you lower your Q7? Did you use springs, or coil overs?

Also, 285-35-22 are not stretched out at all on these wheels. I called Tire rack for some information on some OZ 22" wheels and asked their recommendation on tire size, they recommended a 285 tire

These are 22x10s with 285s ET 50mm. These came right out to the fenders.

I have the factory air ride suspension so it was just a matter of the dealership to recode the suspension.

Kohan makes the wheels. There was a guy selling them on ebay a few years back. But no more. Right now, there is a used set in black up for auction.

Porsche Cayenne makes the exhaust tips.

I asked the service advisor at my dealership if they had the ability to lower my q7 since it could be done with the use of vagcom. He asked one of the techs if it could be done? The tech said he had never tried it on q7 but he had lowered allroads and a8 s with success. So they took on the challenge and it worked. The best part is it was only $65 and since it was done at an audi dealership it still be under warranty.

I finally got a picture of the offset, hopefully you can get a good idea from this picture, it pretty much right up to the fender.
