Default Will 2004 A8 wheels work on a 2011 S5?

Hello, I currently have a 2004 A8L and I am looking to purchase a 2011 S5 Cabriolet. I have a set of snow tires for the A8 and I am wondering if those wheels/tires will fit the S5?

First you have to look at the tire size. If the outside diameter is the same or close the answer is close to being yes. Google tire size apps to compare. After that look at the wheels rim size (width) and offset and compare with S5. Also go to the Hartmann wheel site and see what wheels work for each car as a good data point

While we don't guarantee "cross" fitments for OE wheels, I can tell you that the OE wheels for 2004 A8 would have a 57mm centerbore, and the newer S5 has a 66.5mm hub. If the A8 wheels are aftermarket (using a centering ring), then the A8 tires are about 1.2" too tall to work on S5

Thanks Doc. I didn't know the hub bore of the A8
