2020-Current C8 RS6 Avant
If you are searching for the most ideal wheel & tire fitment for your C8 Audi RS6, you’ve come to the right place. Our C8 RS6 chassis-specific fitment guide covers all of our wheel & tire recommendations for the US production 2020-current RS6 Avant. The wheel fitments listed in this guide were developed from the ground-up for the C8 chassis, offering a flush fit with the fenders while allowing you to run wider tires to increase performance both on and off the track. With that said, our Forged 21" VS-5RX wheels will not only make your C8 RS6 standout aesthetically, but they will also vastly improve your overall grip and handling, as well.
Our Audi RS6 specific VS-5RX wheels utilize a 5x112 bolt pattern with a 66.6mm centerbore, allowing you to fit them directly onto your Audi without the need for hubcentric rings. These wheels are also designed with OEM Audi-spec R13 ball seat lug recesses, so no need to swap any of your existing factory hardware with aftermarket lug bolts or studs. Simply bolt on and go!
