There the A8 rims but I believe the A7 and A8 rims are the same. They are wrapped 275/35/20.

budkole, did you swap the steering wheel yourself? Was it plug and play or were other parts involved too?

nischal · 04-22-2012, 09:23 AM

The wheels are all 9.5" wide but have a staggered lip, purely cosmetic without affecting quattro with a real staggered width wheel

The steering wheel was obtained through Alex, who describes his products here : http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...steering+wheel

He obtains them directly from Germany, to him and provides the correct logo and does
a small modification to the harness pins, swapping 2 of them to make it completely plug and play. I did the install myself after purchasing a special bit available everywhere to take off the steering wheel, very do it yourself. BTW no extra parts, although the price included a new airbag, as they are specific the the wheel.

I did lose my heated steering wheel in the process, so I Vagged the appropriate code to tell the car that a non heated wheel was installed so that it would not throw any codes. Although no warning lights came up prior to my changing the VAG code.
