    C8 S6 Aftermarket Wheel options/Fitment

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I just picked up a 22 S6 and I'm shocked that there's hardly any information on wheel fitment for the platform. No site or tuner is listing anything for the car in a 21" wheel with the exception of ABT. HRE can't or won't confirm fitment of their 21" flowform wheels even though the available specs are same as 20" option that does fit, TireRack says nothing they offer will fit, Rotiform nothing, etc, etc. I understand the brakes are quite large but I still refuse to believe that NOTHING fits.

    Has anyone had any luck with a 21" non custom built wheel other then ABT?

    For what it’s worth - the Q7 spec wheels (21 x 9.5 ET30) fit just fine on my C8 21 Allroad. I would not go beyond 9.5 but that’s just Allroad.

    The allroad can take a beefier wheel since it has fender flares and smaller brake calipers. Seems that a lot of the A6 wheels don't clear the front S6 brakes.

    Vossen has a bunch of options in the HF series. And pricing is reasonable.
    I have 22" HF2 on my Allroad

    Both the Allroad and the A7 can accommodate a much more aggressive wheel. The S6 options seem pretty limited from what I'm finding out.

    Correct. Thats because of the size of the brake calipers providing very little clearance with the wheel so you don't get as much dive to the center cap. Anyone considering wheels really needs to talk to Mops at Nemesis. There is NO ONE who knows more about wheels for Audis than him.

    We've been doing 21x9.5 ET33 on 265. If you someone wanted to push it, I'd say ET30 max.

    I would think that any of the aftermarket wheel options for the C8 RS6/RS7 would fit just fine and clear the brakes?

    I think you'll find that in terms of aftermarket availability, the C8 S6 is the red headed step child of the current Audi lineup.
