Center-bore records disagree (target year-level hub 66.6 mm vs trim range 66.5–66.5 mm; donor year-level hub 66.6 mm vs trim range 66.5–66.5 mm). Unqualified overlap is not claimed until the conflict is resolved. Approximate position vs the mid OEM package: outer change 7.18 mm, inner change -0.83 mm. This uses aggregated width/offset ranges, not a specific wheel.

Hub-centric rings of about 66.6 → 66.5 mm mm may be relevant if the wheel bore is larger than the hub; they cannot enlarge a smaller bore. Approximate position vs the mid OEM package: outer change -0.17 mm, inner change -6.18 mm. This uses aggregated width/offset ranges, not a specific wheel.

2017 Audi S6 Wheel Interchange and Fitment Guide
You want to know what wheels interchange with your 2017 Audi S6, but conflicting specs and mixed forum advice make it unclear. The risk is rubbing, vibration, or damaged hardware. This page clarifies the constraints, then shows how to validate a swap using the on-page calculator.
1. Goal
Pick wheels and tires that fit a 2017 Audi S6 safely, using known OEM data and the calculator to compare donor sets against your car. The objective is confident fitment with no rubbing, no vibration, and proper hardware engagement.
2. Prerequisites
Have these facts ready before you compare:
Parameter
2017 Audi S6 (known OEM)
Bolt pattern
5x112
Center bore
66.6 mm
Thread size
M14 x 1.5
Rim size
19 x 8.5 in
Offset (ET)
45 mm
Backspacing
6.02 in
Tire size
255/40R19
Notes and assumptions:
Some trims or appearance packages can vary. If your VIN build data shows a different factory wheel, use that as your baseline.
Wheel bolt torque, seat type, and brake package details are not provided here. Verify in the Audi service information or owner’s manual before installation.
Confirm your current wheel and tire specs on the door jamb label, owner’s manual, or the casting/label on the wheel. Use the OEM values above if they match your vehicle. This is the reference set in the calculator.
3.2 Compare a donor setup in the calculator
Open the calculator on wheelinterchange.com. In “Installed on (your vehicle)”, select 2017 Audi S6. In “Wheels from (donor vehicle)”, enter the donor’s wheel size or use “Custom wheel size”. Set the rim diameter, width, and offset. If you plan a tire change, set “Custom tire size”. The calculator will update tire diameter as you change rim diameter.
3.3 Check the six primary constraints
Work through these in order. Treat each as a gate.
Bolt pattern: Must be 5x112. Adapters add complexity and change scrub radius, so consider them only with expert validation.
Center bore: The hub is 66.6 mm. Larger-bore wheels need hub-centric rings sized to 66.6 mm. Smaller-bore wheels will not fit.
Thread and hardware: Thread is M14x1.5. Match seat type to the wheel design. Audi OE typically uses wheel bolts; verify seat type before buying hardware.
Offset and clearance: Compare poke (outer position) and inner clearance in the calculator. Ensure no fender contact outside and no suspension or liner contact inside.
Brake caliper/barrel clearance: Visually check spoke and barrel shape against your calipers. If uncertain, test fit and spin the wheel by hand.
Tire diameter: Keep overall diameter close to stock to maintain speedometer and chassis systems. As a working rule, many installers aim for a small change, often within a few percent. Confirm against OEM guidance where available.
3.4 Decide on trade-offs
Wider wheels increase grip but reduce inner clearance and may require different offsets. Higher offset moves the wheel inward. Lower offset pushes it outward. Larger diameter tightens barrel-to-caliper clearance and can change ride quality. Use the calculator to see each change and document your final target.
3.5 Plan hardware and accessories
Match bolt length to the wheel hub pad and any spacers. If the wheel bore is larger than 66.6 mm, plan hub-centric rings. Reuse OEM bolts with OEM wheels when possible. For aftermarket solutions, confirm seat type and required shank length with the wheel supplier.
3.6 Test fit one corner
Mount one front wheel first. Hand torque in a star pattern. Spin the wheel and turn lock-to-lock while the car is in the air. Check inner liner, control arms, and brake hose clearance. Lower the car and check fender clearance at normal ride height. Repeat at the rear if the setup differs front to rear.
4. Validation
Use this checklist before committing to the full set:
Wheel seats flush on the hub and centers without play.
No contact at full steering lock and over a suspension compression event.
Calculator shows acceptable inner and outer position changes relative to OEM.
Road test at city and highway speeds. No vibration, no pulling, no ABS or stability warnings.
Re-torque after 50–100 km of driving, following the value in the Audi manual.
5. Troubleshooting
If you hit a problem, match the symptom to the likely cause and action.
Vibration at speed: Wheel not centered or hardware mismatch. Confirm hub-centric fit. Add proper rings if the bore is larger than 66.6 mm. Verify balance and torque sequence.
Rubbing on the inner liner or control arm: Offset too high or width too large. Use the calculator to reduce inner poke. Consider a lower ET or narrower width. Small spacers can help but require longer bolts and careful validation.
Rubbing on fender or arch liner: Offset too low or tire too wide. Move ET higher or reduce section width. Check camber settings as aggressive camber can mask or cause contact.
Brake caliper touch or very tight clearance: Barrel shape incompatible. Choose a wheel with better caliper relief or test a different spoke profile.
TPMS light: Sensor compatibility or registration issue. Transfer OEM sensors or use compatible units and perform relearn per Audi procedure.
Incorrect speedometer reading: Tire diameter changed more than desired. Adjust aspect ratio or section width to bring diameter closer to stock in the calculator.
6. Wrap up
The 2017 Audi S6 baseline is a solid reference: 5x112, 66.6 mm bore, M14x1.5 hardware, and the 19x8.5 ET45 wheel with 255/40R19 tire. Use those numbers in the calculator, compare any donor or custom setup against them, and validate clearances on the car. When in doubt, prioritize hub centering, correct hardware, and maintaining overall tire diameter. This approach reduces risk and delivers a clean, vibration-free fit.
If any spec on your vehicle differs from the values shown, rely on your VIN build data and Audi documentation. The calculator on wheelinterchange.com will reflect the change and help you confirm the final decision with confidence.
Methodology and sources
Wheel interchange depends on more than bolt pattern. Where data is available, this site compares recorded OEM values:
Bolt pattern / PCD
Center bore direction (donor wheel bore must not be smaller than the hub)
Wheel diameter, width, and offset against known OEM ranges
A normal wheel spacer does not change bolt pattern. Hub rings cannot enlarge a wheel bore that is smaller than the hub. Brake clearance and tire package fitment still require vehicle-specific checks when not confirmed in the dataset.
