Hi all
New S3 owner here, 64 plate

I picked it up without a spare. But don’t fancy not having one. So ordered a 2nd hand ‘Audi’ space saver, 18” (car has standard 18s)

Anyway, the sub doesn’t fit in the middle. It’s too big.
So…..
Wrong spare?
Is the sub from a 19”?
Any advice appreciated!
 
Have you got any pictures of the spare and the sub?
Mine came from the factory with b&o sub and spare so can compare.

You can see it won’t go past the inner rim
One photo didn’t load, I’ll try again

Have a look here. Lots of info
 
Looking at your sub, the bottom part doesn’t taper down towards the wheel like mine does.
maybe wrong sub or sub enclosure.

Mine looks similar to this. You can see the taper where it goes into the pare wheel.
 
I think mine does taper… I’ll take another pic tomorrow.
Can you measure the diameter of your sub if you get a chance mate? Also show me the inside of your spare?
