just acquired a CPO 2014 SQ5. Love it. I would like to add spacers to the rear wheels. Anyone done this? Suggestions? I have the 21" wheels.

I just had 12.5mm spacers installed on front and 20mm on rear of my 16 SQ5 and now the wheels are flush to the fenders. Very happy with the result. I also have the 21in wheels on my SQ5

I haven't taken any pics with the spacers installed but will this coming weekend and post them. I had a wheel shop install them for me.....no charge! Then took the SQ5 to my uncles Audi dealership for the wheel alignment.

Pics are great! Love the look! Can I ask where you ordered the spacers? Your SQ5 looks great!!

Thank you. Love my SQ5. I ordered them from ECS Tuning. I did check out quite a few different vendors. I bought it as a kit so the spacers came with the lug nuts. Enjoy your SQ5! It is a great and fun vehicle. Would like to see some pics of your SQ5.

ECS Tuning kit has 38mm bolts for 12.5mm and 47mm bolts for 20mm spacers. No issues with those bolt sizes ?

I have been reading that the bolt size should be 30mm + spacer size, as in 30+12.5=42.5mm and 50mm for these spacers.

I am about to pull the trigger on 12.5mm(f) and 20mm(r) spacers alone from ECS and then bolts from ACHTuning.

I put the same width spacers and longer bolts on my S3 from ESCTuning. Work great. Nice quality. Built in hub centric hub. Bought longer locking bolts from ECStuning as well.

Kit from ESCTuning has R13 ball seat lug bolts and Q5 uses R14 ball seat.

You need those bolts: H&R 14mm diameter lug bolts for Audi Q5 and SQ5 wheels (sold in sets of 10 lugs)
