thanks, tyres way to big but suppose could sell on... ill give it a call...

 

[Bulldog]

Yeah I think you’ll need 255/30/21 to fit on standard arches. Is yours a saloon or Avant?

 

[Peccy]

Avant. currently on standard 20" rotors with 255/35/20

21s are an extra inch wider at 9.5inch so a 255 will look a bit stretched, think im going to a 275/30/21 ...

 

[Bulldog]

Only thing is it doesn’t say the offset for those wheels in the link. I’ve got 9x20 et33 on my Avant & there flush with the arches.

These are 9x21 et30 so would fit ok.

What tyre size are running on your 9x20 et33's ?

 

[Bulldog]

255/35/20 which isn’t stretched in the slightest. I’ve also got 5mm spacers on the rear & it will look a lot better tomorrow as I’m getting my KW’s installed.

For the same price you can occasionally find newer Q7 21” used wheels which are the same style as RS6 but 9.5j ET31 so will fit our A6 C7

Every set of copies I’ve had didn’t last long before they cracked but I might just be a **** driver

 

[Bulldog]

I’ve looked at those but they’ll poke quite a bit especially at the front. My wheels are off a Q7. I’ve personally never ran replica wheels but when your going big & using rubber bands for tyre OE wheels are definitely a better option.

[Bulldog]

The fronts would stick out nearly 10mm the backs might just be ok but think it would depend if your lowered or not.

I’m on the same wheels you in gloss black aswell,it’s a shame if the Q7 21s sticks out because I was keeping an eye open for them for myself

 

[Bulldog]

I have seen some pics of Q7 21’s on A6’s but they’ve always been on air ride. I’ll probably get a set of 21’s next year for mine.

[Peccy]

@ScottFree cheers but managed to find some the other day, £660 brand new, black/cut finish too. photos soon! from CM Wheels

 

[Bulldog]

@Peccy what width are the wheels & what size tyres are you going to use ?

 

[Peccy]

9.5inch, fitted with 265/30/21 as a lot of people said 275's would not fit on the front, but theres plenty of room even at full lock, pitty as the 265 are a little stretched, i even think 285's would fit!

 

[Bulldog]

@Peccy got any pics ? What’s the offset of them ?

 

[CHEZ]

Don't buy reps kids.
They are cheap for a reason.
I got me some 20" rotor reps once upon a time and they were so heavy, and the finish on the diamond cut went milky in just over a year.
No kerbing, sealed and treated and removed over winter.
I sold them come tyre time and bought genuine BBS.
The difference is night and day.
Genuine wheels or decent wheels only for me
* I am sure that style your after came from SQ5 too.
Maybe try searching that

 

[Bulldog]

@CHEZ don’t worry I’m not into reps I always go OEM for wheels.

 

[Peccy]

21inch RS6 reps. 9.5inch, ET35, 265/30/21 conti's. Standard S Line suspension. 3.0 BiTDi

No noticeable difference in ride comfort.

Does it need lowering a bit?

 

[Bulldog]

I’d say yes to lowering but I am a bit biased

They look mint, mate. Personally I like the way the 21’s fill the arches as they are, with an even gap all round, rather than the top of the arch looking closer to the tyre, but that’s got to be a personal call.

 

[Bulldog]

@Peccy whats contis have you gone for 5’s or 6’s ? I had conti 6’s on my A4 Avant & really liked them.

 

[Peccy]

@Bulldog 5's not really put them to the test as yet... 263/30/21 - £180 each fitted.

 

[CHEZ]

21's look so frickin awesome

 

[Buxton2901]

whats the ride like on 21's though?
mine is hard enough on 20's

 

[J10NMM]

Reps have a tendency to crack and buckle easily had a few sets in the past and would never do it again

255/35/20 which isn’t stretched in the slightest. I’ve also got 5mm spacers on the rear & it will look a lot better tomorrow as I’m getting my KW’s installed.
