Bignick2 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Unfortunately I potholed my Q7 last week kinking my front alloy and costing me 2 new front tyres, Bought a nearly new set of Q8 2018 rims thinking I could just exchange them, Nooooo the rims wouldnt fit, I believe there are adapter spacers for such a case, my original rims are stock 21" but totally different to the Q8, see below Can anyone help me with the spacers? I can buy the adapters that take care of the Hub diameter and bolt pattern but unsure of the size depth of spacer and are the front and rear different? The spacer and adapters are north of 200 quid so need to be sure. can anyone help? Nick..... the pic below is the Q* rim I want to put on......Bargain I thought. audi rims.docx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
