Audi A8 wheel fitment — D5 Facelift
Audi A8 wheel fitment
Audi A8 wheel fitment for the Audi A8 D5 Facelift (2021–2026): the factory PCD, centre bore and bolt spec, then the aftermarket width and offset window we fit to.
| 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–10J | ET15–ET45 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8 to 10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
UK popularity & demand
Based on DfT VEH0124 vehicle-parc data (2025), there are approximately 9,653 Audi A8 on UK roads, placing it in the top 14% of car models by volume across our fitment database.
That makes Audi A8 wheel fitment a high-demand spec to keep in stock. It is one reason we track it here.

History & notable variants
In March 2026, Audi announced the cessation of new orders for the A8 in Germany from February 18th, signaling the end of this generation. Reports suggest that a successor is under development but availability in other markets will depend on remaining inventory levels as Audi shifts strategic focus towards SUVs and electric vehicles.
