Audi Q8 e-tron GE — Wheel Fitment & Specs
Overview
The Audi Q8 is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV coupé made by Audi, launched in 2018. It serves as the flagship of Audi's SUV lineup and is produced at the Volkswagen Bratislava Plant in Slovakia. The Q8 shares its MLB Evo platform with other high-end models like the Lamborghini Urus and Bentley Bentayga. Compared to its sibling model, the Audi Q7, it offers a more sleek design but has less cargo space due to its sloped roofline and lacks third-row seating options.

Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 8J–10J | ET0–ET40 |
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.

History & notable variants
The development of the Q8 began as Audi observed the success of coupe SUVs like BMW's X6 and Mercedes-Benz's GLE-Class Coupe. It was designed under Marc Lichte, featuring a larger octagonal grille with both vertical and horizontal slats, full-laser headlamps, and taillamps. The interior includes a knob-less MMI system, three touch screens, and an enlarged virtual cockpit. A facelift for the 2024 model year was unveiled in September 2023, introducing subtle exterior changes such as larger air inlets and new exhaust setups.
