Wheel fitment question

Post by Markp » Tue Sep 29, 2015 9:20 am

Will this older 20 inch (presume C6) alloy fit my new C7. I will check tyre size and rolling diameter too.
Looking to have a spare to throw in the back for long journeys,

That's a C7 wheel... but if it's 20" it's a rep

It is genuine Audi so could it be off a 5 or 7?
If so will it fit 6?

If the offset and width is the same as a C7 20" wheel then yes it should.

RS5 wheels are 9x20 on a 265x30 tyre.
RS6 wheels are 9.5x20 on a 275x35 tyre

Might be driveable but I wouldn't risk it.

Just looking for spare to check in the boot on long journeys / keep at home if I get a puncture locally.
I live in the boonies and depending on AA and local tyre fitters not appetising!

Different offsets too. RS5 is ET26 and the 20 inch RS6 wheel is ET21. When you factor in the width difference too it is a fair but not significant difference.
