    Can Tire Rack Be trusted with Rim fitment?

    Looking to get winter tires for new RS7 and was going to downsize slightly to a 20" rim which tire rack says will fit etc. Anyone had any issues with a 20" rim fitting over front brake calipers (non ceramic)?

    They are pretty dependable. 20" wheels will fit stock RS7 brakes... You can trust TR.

    That, and if you are getting both wheels and tires from them, they can mount them for you before shipping them out.

    TireRack is pretty dependable. My friend got a set of 20 from TR, they fit well.
    I also bought 20' hartmann Audi replica wheel for my winter set, bought tires from TR. They fit well.

    I had great service from tirerack garage. Their wheel and tire combos are great, and they'll ship them either directly to you or to a tire shop of your choosing. I liked their option to have the tires mounted and road-force balanced for free as well. Yes, the 20" rims will fir over your brakes pretty easily.

    If they say they will fit and they don't they would likely take them back. I have had good luck and would recommend them.
