Audi A6 wheel fitment — C8 Facelift
Overview
The Audi A6 C8 Facelift is part of the sixth generation of the Audi A6 series, which began as a successor to the Audi 100 and has been manufactured since 1994. This specific generation (C8) was introduced in 2018 and underwent a facelift at an unspecified date within its production timeline. The C8 is produced in Neckarsulm, Germany, and features a variety of body styles including saloon/sedan and Avant/estate configurations. It continues to offer both front-wheel-drive (FF) and quattro all-wheel-drive options, with the latter being marketed as Audi's signature system. This generation builds on previous models by incorporating advanced technology and design elements that enhance its market positioning in the executive car segment.
Audi A6 wheel fitment
Audi A6 wheel fitment for the Audi A6 C8 Facelift (2023–2026): the factory PCD, centre bore and bolt spec, then the aftermarket width and offset window we fit to.
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x112 |

| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 120 Nm |

Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 7.5J–10J | ET22–ET50 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8–10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
