What Bolt Pattern Does the Audi A7 Use?
Every Audi A7—both the 1st generation (4G8/C7) and the 2nd generation (4K8/C8)—uses a 5x112 bolt pattern with roughly a 66.5mm center bore. Unlike its A6 sibling, which changed center bore at the C7 platform switch, the A7 arrived after that switch and has kept the same hub dimensions ever since, which makes wheel shopping simpler across A7 model years.
About the Audi A7
The Audi A7 is Audi's four-door liftback, built for drivers who want the interior space and practicality of a sedan with the low, sloping roofline of a coupe. It sits above the A6 in both price and styling ambition, aimed at buyers who want their luxury car to look as distinctive as it drives.
The 1st generation A7 (2011–2017) shared its underlying platform with the C7 A6, wrapped in a swoopy, frameless-door body style that was unusual for Audi at the time. The 2nd generation, which arrived for 2018, moved to the newer MLB Evo platform shared with the C8 A6, bringing a sharper, more angular design along with mild-hybrid engine technology.
Wheel design has grown more aggressive with each generation. 1st generation A7 wheels ranged from clean, multi-spoke 18" and 19" designs on Premium trims up to staggered 20"–21" wheels on the RS7. The 2nd generation pushed further still, with the RS7 now available on staggered 22" wheels—some of the largest factory fitments in Audi's US lineup.
Shoppers cross-shopping the A7 typically also look at the BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe and the Mercedes-Benz CLS—similarly styled four-door coupes aimed at buyers who want a sedan's practicality without a traditional three-box shape. Compared to those rivals, the A7 tends to appeal to buyers who want a quieter, more understated cabin along with the reassurance of quattro grip in poor weather.
Vehicle Generations & Wheel Changes
The A7 has gone through two generations, and unlike its A6 sibling, the wheel fitment hasn't changed at all between them—both bolt pattern and center bore have stayed the same since the A7 launched. That's good news if you're shopping for a replacement, since you don't have to track a mid-generation switch the way you would on the A6.

The single biggest thing to know: Every A7 generation shares the same 5x112 bolt pattern and roughly 66.5mm center bore. That makes wheels more interchangeable across A7 model years than on many other Audi models, though offset and width still vary by trim and wheel diameter.
OEM Wheel Sizes & Fitment by Year
Exact wheel sizes and offsets varied by trim and engine option, so treat these as the typical factory range for each era. The RS7 in particular runs a noticeably different offset than other trims because of its wider body.

Why Choose Genuine OEM Wheels?
Factory (OEM) wheels are engineered specifically for your A7's suspension geometry, brake clearance, and load ratings. They're designed to match the A7's factory styling while maintaining the specifications Audi intended for the vehicle.
-
Guaranteed fitment. No adapters, spacers, or “close enough” sizing—genuine wheels match your A7's exact factory specifications, including bolt pattern, offset, and hub bore.
-
Resale and appearance. A stock-style wheel keeps the car looking factory-correct, which matters if you plan to sell later. Many buyers appreciate a vehicle that still has its original factory wheels.
-
Correct load rating. OEM wheels are rated for your A7's exact weight and quattro all-wheel-drive setup where equipped. A knockoff or aftermarket wheel isn't always built to meet that same rating.
-
TPMS compatibility. Factory wheels are drilled and shaped to work with your original tire pressure sensors without modification.
Aftermarket or Replica wheels might get you by, but if you're simply replacing a damaged wheel after curb damage, a pothole, or winter driving, a genuine OEM wheel is almost always the simpler, safer choice.
OEM vs. Replica & Aftermarket Wheels
Some drivers choose replica wheels for their similar appearance or price. If your goal is to replace a damaged factory wheel, a genuine OEM wheel offers the best path to the correct fit, finish, and overall appearance, without the extra research replica shopping usually requires. We offer genuine OEM at replica price levels, often less. Here's how the two options typically compare:
| OEM Wheels |
Aftermarket / Replica Wheels |
| Exact factory fit—bolt pattern, offset, and center bore all match from the factory |
Fit varies by brand and model; worth checking against your specific trim |
| No spacers or hub rings needed |
May require spacers or hub-centric rings to fit correctly |
| TPMS-ready out of the box |
May need sensor relocation, new sensors, or recalibration |
| Matches the original factory finish and styling |
Wide range of finishes, styles, and price points |
| Fitment is already verified for your trim |
Fitment is worth verifying per wheel before buying |
| Weight matches factory-engineered specs |
Weight varies—can be lighter or heavier depending on construction |
| Resale value stays consistent with a factory-correct look |
Resale value depends on buyer taste and wheel condition |
| Finish durability tested to OEM standards |
Finish durability varies by manufacturer and coating quality |
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern does an Audi A7 use?
Both A7 generations—4G8/C7 and 4K8/C8—use a 5x112 bolt pattern with a center bore of roughly 66.5mm, so this hasn't changed since the A7 launched in 2011.
Can I put 2nd generation (4K8) A7 wheels on a 1st generation (4G8) A7?
Generally yes, since both generations share the same 5x112 bolt pattern and center bore. Offset and width can differ by trim and wheel diameter, though, so double-check fitment before swapping, especially with S7 or RS7 wheels.
Do all A7 trims use the same size wheel?
No. Premium and Premium Plus trims typically run smaller 18"–19" wheels, while Prestige and S line step up to 20", and S7 or RS7 models use 20"–22" staggered setups paired with larger brakes.
Is a genuine OEM wheel really worth it over a replica?
For most owners, yes. A genuine OEM wheel takes the guesswork out of fitment, TPMS compatibility, and load rating, and it keeps the car looking factory-correct—something that tends to matter again at resale time, when buyers are comparing your A7 against others on the lot.
Final Thoughts
The Audi A7's wheel fitment is among the most consistent on this list—the 5x112 bolt pattern and roughly 66.5mm center bore have carried through both generations without a single change, unlike the A6 it shares a platform with. The real variable to watch is offset, especially if you're moving a wheel onto or off of an RS7.
Whether you're replacing a curbed rim, buying take-off wheels, or shopping for a full winter set, a genuine OEM wheel is the simplest way to keep that fitment factory-correct and your A7 looking the way it did on the day it left the dealership. If you're unsure which factory wheel originally came on your Audi A7, Finish Line Wheels can help you identify the correct replacement.
