Default Any reason why a7 s7 forged wheels won’t fit q7

they’re all 20x9 5X112 with offsets ranging from 37mm so should work fine right ?

I’m using the same specs via Audi A8 wheels with no problems.

20x9 wheels
5x112 bolt pattern
37 offset
66.5mm hub
M14 x 1.5 lugs

As a follow up : I had a call today with Christian from Fuchs - the wheel manufacturer for many of the VAG products (Porsche Audi VW Lamborghini) - he said while it may technically fit mounting, none of the a7/A6 wheels will work for the q7 because of the axle load - he said they are not designed to handle the fully loaded weight of a SUV and the forces that come with a pot hole hit etc.

He did say the A8 wheels will work.

Thanks for the info on the A8 wheels. Good luck in the wheel search.
