Audi A6 wheel fitment — C8 Facelift
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 C8 Facelift (2023–2026).
| 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 | 7.5J–10J | ET22–ET50 |
Go wider and the offset has to rise with it, about 8 to 10 ET per extra 1J, or the wheel pokes past the arch. The fit-check settles the exact offset and any spacer.
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.
