Hi All,

Just a quick question...

My S8 is still on it's winter 17" wheels, so it's summer 20" standard wheels are in the garage...

Do these fit on the the RS6 OK so that I can get it's 19" standard wheels refurbed... don't really want it sitting about on axle stands...

It doesn't need to drive anywhere with the 20's... but as long as they can go on, I should be OK...

:thumbs:

Probably best to maybe erm...try them?

I had my '6 sitting on 20" AMG rims for a few days during a refurb...well, just the rears as the fronts wouldn't clear the Brembos!

Not only will they fit, it'll look good too.

Driving on 20" isn't all that hard it all depends on which tires you use.
I have Michelin ps2 in 265-30-20 and the ride is fine even better than my 255-40-18 winter tires.

I THOUGHT Daniel (Spacecowboy) had spacers on his to fit them?

I agree, I much prefer the ride quality on the 20" wheels on the S8... doesn't really suit the winter wheels...

I won't be driving far (if at all) with the 20s on the RS...
