was at the audi dealer picking up some parts for my daily driver (yea, you heard right! ;<) and stopped over to look at the spare on the A8's. there were 2 different wheels offered for the A8. the 16" painted alloys, and the 17" polished alloys. they didnt have any A8 w/ 16"s in stock, just 17"s. so i told the salesman i was interested in the A8 (its in my budget, ya know) so he popped the trunk, and i had a look at the spare. Its a full size spare, 17" steel, with a 35mm offset. same lug pattern as vanagon (obviously) seems like it would be a better offset to have than one from a 5KT (45mm) chris |
