Hey all. Can anyone confirm for me success running 12mm front and 15mm rear spacers with the stock 20" wheels on a 2013 S6? The posts I found indicated that others were using those sizes, but I wasn't 100% that it was with the 20" wheels and not the 19s. Any advice appreciated.

Thanks!

That's exactly what I'm running on my S6. 12mm front/ 15mm rear on stock 20's. Fits nicely. It could come out further if you really want to push it, but I'm happy with it.

Thread from another member that ran the same setup.

Which spacers did you buy? It looks like there are 2 types of 15mm spacers on the Achtuning website. Also, what lugs are needed for the 12 and 15mm spacers? Sorry for the noob questions, but I've never run spacers before and would like to add these.

Thanks guys. Hopefully they'll fit.

For those who asked, I ordered through Achtuning. They were very helpful by email, but hadn't installed any spacers on S6s so couldn't advice on specific fitments. They suggested getting a set of 15s and doing a test fit on the front to see if I wanted to go 15/20 or 12/15, but I ended up just ordering the 12/15 set.

This is my order info from Achtuning:

H&R 14mm diameter lug bolts for Audi (sold in sets of 10 lugs)
Seat, head, diameter and length: 14x1.5x40 R13 Ball Seat (H&R # 1454003) 1454003 1 $44.50 $44.50
H&R 14mm diameter lug bolts for Audi (sold in sets of 10 lugs)
Seat, head, diameter and length: 14x1.5x43 R13 Ball Seat (H&R # 1454303) 1454303 1 $44.50 $44.50
H&R 3055668 5x112 66mm CB 15mm wheel spacers (pair) for Audi 3055668 1 $76.96 $76.96
H&R 2455668 5x112 66mm CB 12mm wheel spacers (pair) for Audi 2455668 1 $76.96 $76.96


I'm not vouching that this setup will work for any else's car (or even mine for that matter since I don't have them on yet), so take it for what it's worth, which isn't much since I'm a n00b at this myself. If anyone sees any obvious errors in the order, I'd appreciate a heads-up though.

Thanks Greg. Let me know how they fit and post pix when you're done. No offense, but I'll wait to see how yours goes before ordering mine.

I called AWE tuning and they set me up with the proper spacers and lug nuts from H&R.

Will do. BTW, here is a pick of my ride with stock wheels (after complete front-end clear bra install and opticoat).

Can you see and/or feel a difference?

Spacers have the effect of lowering the spring rate, everything else being unchanged. It may in some cars affect steering geometry enough to throw off factory preset stability control parameters.
