Audi A6 wheel fitment — C7
Audi A6 wheel fitment
Audi A6 wheel fitment comes down to two things: the factory hub spec, and how far the aftermarket width and offset can move from it. Both are here for the Audi A6 C7 (2011–2015).
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x112 |
| Centre bore | 66.6 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 120 Nm |
| Seat type | radius |
| Factory setup | square |
| TPMS | indirect |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 7J–9J | ET27–ET45 |
Width and offset move together: roughly 8 to 10 ET more for every extra 1J keeps the wheel inside the arch. Final offset and any spacer come from the fit-check.
Overview
The Audi A6 C7 is an executive car manufactured by Audi AG from 2011 to 2015, succeeding the C6 generation and preceding the C8. It was produced at the Neckarsulm plant in Germany and offered as a saloon (sedan) and Avant (estate/wagon). The A6 C7 is based on the Volkswagen Group's Premium Platform Efficiency (PPE), which aimed to improve efficiency, dynamics, and technology integration compared to its predecessor. Notable changes include an updated exterior design with sleeker lines, improved interior quality, and enhanced connectivity features.
