The QuattroWorld.com Q7 is in for a "stance" consultation. We immediately decided we need to GO WIDE courtesy of TRAK+ Wheel Spacers from our good friends at H&R. Update later... Gorgeous ride though, no?

Hmm i have the same setup i might need a spacer as well. I have the same wheels and i have a box of sport springs sitting in my garage. Pm price for spacers shipped to 78260, do i need wheel bolts??

Dion@Achtuning
09-06-2011, 11:07 AM
Extended wheel bolts (we stock those also) would be needed for H&R's DR-style spacer. We are going to attempt H&R's DRA-style spacers that come with hardware so you would not need to purchase additional wheel bolts. PM sent with pricing. Give us a few days (after QW returns for the install) to confirm fitment before ordering. [up]

What is the bore on the stock wheels for the 2011 Q7? I have spacers on my TTS and S4 and I know both of those had different bore sizes. I want to get spacers on my Q7 but I want to make sure I get the right size.

Dion@Achtuning
09-09-2011, 09:01 AM
Not only a different bore size but a different bolt pattern, too. The Q7 is a 5x130 bolt pattern with a 71.6 center bore. [up]

Bruce's Audi Q7 sits very nicely over a set of our 22" Hartmann HRS4-252 Wheels (http://shop.achtuning.com/Hartmann-B7-HRS4-252-GS-17-18-19-20-22-Inch-Replica-Wheels-for-Audi.aspx) in Hyper Silver. 23mm DR-style H&R Trak+ Spacers (http://shop.achtuning.com/HR-DR-Series-5x130-Bolt-Pattern-Wheel-Spacers.aspx) bring the wheels out closer to the fender for that nice, aggressive look!

Do the 23mm spacers cause any problems with tire rubbing? I have the air suspension on my Q7 S-line and I want to make sure there will be no issues with tire rubbing when making a full lock turn. Also are you going to package the spacers and lugs in a package deal anytime soon?

Dion@Achtuning
09-15-2011, 09:45 AM
No rubbing on any of these set-ups. [up] In fact Bruce's Q7 had room to come out further but he wanted to keep things "civil". Our H&R spacer prices are very competitive, and so are the hardware we sell with them. On top of that we offer FREE SHIPPING in the Continental US so it won't get much better than that.

So just to make sure I get the right things. I will need to orders of spacers and 2 orders of lugs. How long should I get the bolts?

Thanks for your help.

Dion@Achtuning

The bolt length would depend on what size spacer you pick up. If still going with the 23mm spacer, the bolt length would be 58mm. Ball-seat style bolt if spacing out your factory wheels.

We are grateful for images that were just sent to us by one of our customers of this gorgeous Audi Q5 featuring H&R's Sport Spring (http://shop.achtuning.com/HR-29001-1-Sport-Springs-Audi-Q5.aspx) kit and a set of Hartmann HRS4-252GA:M (http://shop.achtuning.com/Hartmann-B7-HRS4-252-GA-M-19-20-Inch-Replica-Wheels-Audi.aspx) wheels. The H&R springs lower the Q5 about 1.6" up front and 1.5" out back, and the wheels are 20x9 with a 40mm offset.

Jim negotiated a Hartmann Wheel install when he bought his new Audi Q5 from Audi Wilsonville in Oregon. Soon after taking delivery, Jim was on our door step in anticipation of having the 20" Hartmann HRS6-204 (http://shop.achtuning.com/Hartmann-HRS6-204-GS-18-19-20-Inch-Replica-Wheels-Audi.aspx) Wheels thrown on his new ride! The factory offsets are always a bit on the weak side and we mentioned to Audi Wilsonville that the 20x9 +25mm offset would be a better fit for the Q5, filling the fenders out nicely and giving it that much needed, aggressive stance. We're glad they went for it, and we're happy to report Jim is a happy customer!

That looks awesome. I have a Q5 S line (2011) . Could I run the same rim/tire/spacer combo you have on the Q7 ? , if so what is the spec
Thanks ...

Skyler@Achtuning
12-12-2011, 12:28 PM
The Q5 and Q7 use some pretty different specs though you may be able to use wheel adapters to run the OEM Q7 wheels (5x130 bolt pattern) on the Q5 (5x112 bolt pattern). The OEM Q7 wheels are a 21x10" with an ET44 offset. Adapters are usually available in 20-25mm thickness. Running a 10" wheel with an effective ET24 offset of the Q5 would place the face of the wheel outside of the fenders though which may not be the look you are trying to achieve.

Another option would be to pick up a set of Hartmann HRS6-204 wheels in 20x9.0" ET25 which would be a direct fitment and pretty aggressive looking on the Q5. The wheels are currently only available in gloss silver but you could probably have a local wheel repair shop refinish them in the Audi style titanium finish for a few hundred dollars.

Thanks guys for the reply. I still think the wheel well is to big on Ryan's , that's what I'm trying to avoid . I already have the Audi 20" rims . Im looking to drop it and add an exhaust system . But I love the aggressive stance of the Black Q7, that's the look I want

Ben picked up his Audi Q5 from University Audi in Seattle and just before taking delivery, he had arranged for his salesman to bring us his new purchase to outfit it with a set of our Hartmann HRS6-204-MA wheels. The similar design to the factory version offers an OEM+ look with our matte-anthracite finish and is a great look for Ben's Q5.

Before and after comparison shots show what a big difference that lower wheel offset makes when its on the car. After installing low-offset-achieving H&R wheel spacers on his Audi TTS, Barry returned with his Q7 so we could install our 22" Hartmann HRS4-252-GS (http://shop.achtuning.com/Hartmann-B7-HRS4-252-GS-20-and-22-inch-Replica-Wheels-for-Q7-and-Touareg.aspx) wheels. The 50mm offset and 9.5" specs sit further out in the fenders and give the Q7 that sportier look. While nothing was needed up front, a pair of H&R's DR-style 23mm spacers (http://shop.achtuning.com/HR-46957161-5x130-DR-23mm-wheel-spacers-for-Audi-Porsche-and-VW.aspx) were added out back to match the wheel position in the fender with the way the fronts sit. The end result is a much sportier version of what rolled off the factory floor, and likely at a fraction of the cost!

While we are very brand loyal with regard to the parts we sell at Achtuning, we certainly wouldn't turn away an install of reputable-brand parts we don't offer, especially when it comes to brake and suspension upgrades as we feel we specialize specifically in those areas. So when Jason contacted us to install a set of KW V2 coil-overs on his Q5, we were happy to oblige!

StopTech has unveiled their new line of racing brake pads!

http://gallery.achtuning.com/main.php/d/43793-4/stracepadspathed.jpg

StopTech, the ultra performance and racing brand from Centric Parts, introduces a new line of StopTech Racing Brake Friction that brings the company’s “Brake Late, Finish First” philosophy to a wider range of racing disciplines. The new racing pads complement the company’s extensive range of high performance brake component and system upgrades - and help turn any StopTech system into a dedicated race system.

Available in four formulations, the new StopTech Racing Brake Pads are engineered to provide optimal friction levels for a variety of different racing applications. All StopTech Racing Brake Pads provide shorter stops, increased control through superior pedal modulation, and fade-free performance at extreme racing temperatures. StopTech Racing pads are designed to provide superior performance in any racing brake system, and match the outstanding performance capabilities drivers have come to expect from all StopTech Racing Brake Systems and components.

StopTech's unique metallic compounds are blended with carbon and graphite particles to provide an optimal high temperature race friction material. The result is smoother, more predictable and more consistent brake engagement along with exceptional release characteristics not found in most other racing friction materials.

StopTech engineers work directly with race teams, often trackside, to gather valuable experience in dynamic real world conditions. Data is immediately integrated into the research and development process, resulting in optimized brake systems for individual racing programs.

Hard to say as the Q7 and Q5 are completely different applications but our 20x9.0" ET25 offset is pretty flush on the Q5.

The wheels on the Q7 are OEM Audi, the wheels on the Q5 are Hartmanns.

We determined the QuattroWorld.com Audi Q7 needed 18mm DR style H&R wheel spacers up front and 30mm DRA style spacers out back to even out the "stance" and give the Q7 a much more aggressive look. Mission accomplished!


Dion is your Q7 adaptive air, coilovers or springs? I love the setup but I do not have adaptive air and hate how high our Q sits. I would really love to improve on the stance.

How safe are are the H&R springs in salt and snow? I had 2 Eibach springs snap on me while driving, doing decent damage to my rims. After some research, found out that while other cities use sand and other products to deal with ice, montreal uses salt which corrodes quicker. Furthermore I read that Eibach uses some sort of protective covering to help with squeaks and salt can get under that covering and rust starts to build and eat away at the spring.

So, anyone drive with these springs in winter, to the point where snow packs the wheel wells solid?

Thanks

How does one remove the bolts without damaging the threads? I plan to put on the spacers with rims in the summer and take them off for OEM rims for winter. If one were to use pliers to undo the stock bolts it would strip the threads. Assuming these longer bolts just thread right into the hub.
Thanks

H&R springs are powder coated as well to protect against corrosion but ANY spring (including OEM springs) have the potential to wear over time, especially in places where corrosive materials (like salt) are used. Just need to keep those suspension parts as clean as possible.

A standard 17mm hex socket will suffice. There shouldn't be a concern over damaging threads while removing a bolt if you're using the correct tools. Follow OEM torque specs as well. (Or simply seek professional assistance for install.)

Thanks Achtuning for answering my questions below and helping me work towards my own Hartmann setup on my Q7. One more question, why not swap out to longer studs (to accomodate spacers) instead of recommending longer bolts. From what I read, bolts are a real pain to deal with, since wheel installation becomes more troublesome during wheel swaps between seasons (winter/summer). Mechanics tend to like to slap a wheel onto some studs, let it hang while they airgun the nuts on. I can see them swearing if they had to eyeball a bolt into a hole while bearing the weight of a 22" wheel with spacer, weighlifting it up onto the hub while the car is on a lift, and then hold it there while shooting for that hole. At that point, looks like a 2 person job for sure.

Can one simply remove the stock OEM studs from the rear hubs (for Q7 application), swap out to longer studs, and then slap on the spacer and wheel ??

Of course by doing it this way, this complicates the next season wheel swap, as the longer studs in the rear would need to be removed again to go back to OEM studs, to put back on the OEM wheels without spacers.

I really want to avoid using the spacers in our harsh winters.

Your thoughts ??

Thanks !!

Thanks for all the useful info Achtuning !! So if I were to remove my studs permanently to move to bolts, and only wanted to have the H&R spacers on with the Hartmann 22's in the summer, and return to stock OEM 20's without spacers for the winter, could I run a full bolt only setup ? In other words, if I move to the recommended 58mm bolts with a 23mm spacer + 22s for the Q7, can I assume that for stock, I would use a 58mm-23mm=35mm?? If so, then H&R only make a 30mm and 37mm, so what would be my other option for stock bolts ? I really want to avoid having to re-install the studs every winter.

Thanks
Neil

Skyler@Achtuning
03-19-2014, 11:27 AM
I would go with our 37mm bolts, 2mm too long should not be a problem on the Q7. The other option is the Audi dealership but likely at 2-3x the cost of our bolts.
Thanks Neil!

Compared to those stock specs you list, yes by 12mm.

Has anyone gone with 30mm back and 23mm front wheel spacers on 22 inch rims? I replaced the 21 inch rims (295/35R21) on my 2009 Q7 S-Line with 22 inch rims (285/35R22) as replacement tires on the 21 inch rims was ridiculously expensive in my opinion and I found a good 'wheels+tires' deal on the 22s. I now want to add wheel spacers and am debating which ones to get. 23mm back and 18mm front seems a popoular choice but I've also seen 30mm back and 18mm front or even 23mm back and front. If anyone out there has gone with 30mm back and 23mm front on 22 inch rims I'd love to hear from you as to whether it's an appropriate option and if you have photos even better. That said if for any reason anyone knows why this would be a bad option please let me know why. Any and all feedback appreciated. Cheers!

Will ultimately depend on the profile of your tires and ride height... We bumped down from a 23mm to an 18mm on a lowered (via VCDS) Q7 because at full lock, there would be tire rub with the inner fender liner.

Been digging to find the exact specs on the Quattroworld Q7 suspension - so you're saying this stance was achieved by recoding the air suspension and adding spacers? No other suspension parts? Thanks for any info!

Dion,

Do you remember what size those tires were? They look to have a little more sidewall than the OEM spec 20s, but I didn't think you could go any higher without touching suspension components.


A set of 20" Hartmann HRS6-091 wheels (http://shop.achtuning.com/Hartmann-HRS6-091-MA-M-19-20-Inch-Replica-Wheels-Audi-Q5-SQ5.aspx) were installed on a local SQ5 for this Winter season...

Wheel spec installed is 20x9 +29. We also installed a set of H&R's 15mm wheel spacers (http://shop.achtuning.com/HR-3055668-5x112-DR-6656mm-CB-15mm-wheel-spacers-for-Audi.aspx) out back to even out the stance a bit.

Sorry, I sure don't! We wouldn't tell our customers to deviate from factory spec though and these are dedicated Winter tires...

Bummer, thanks! I can almost make out the sidewall on the tire leaning, but can't tell if it's a 255 (factory) or 265. I must assume it is a 255 per your reply.

Appreciate the prompt reply, those 20s are gorgeous!

By any chance, these available for the Q3?

Thanks.

We haven't seen a Q3 in-house yet to be able to determine fitment with any our wheels. That said, looking at specs available with other wheel brands, I have a feeling there would not be any fitment issues. Wanna be the first? [:D]

LOL, duh... I didn't think to look at the original (larger) image to see if size was visible. It is. Definitely a 255. [up]

No sales expected any time soon. In fact it's pretty rare that new Hartmann Wheels are on sale. Check out our "blem" (http://shop.achtuning.com/Hartmann-Blemished-Wheel-Set-List.aspx) or "garage sale" (http://achtuning.com/specials/achtuning-garage-sale/) section for deals every now and then.

Hi,
I just purchased a 2015 Q7 Premium Plus. Also just got the S-Line 21" wheels and arches. I think the front looks ok bu the rears are (after the wheel arches) too tucked in. My questions is : are there any issues with only installing the H&R 23mm rear spacers ?

I believe it was mentioned earlier in this thread but I'd like to confirm the oem bolt length for a 2015 Q7 TDI. Are they 35mm? I'm on the 21' peelers.
