    you will need spacers because the offset is different and also different wheel bolts too i think

      Which S8 alloys? new or old, as one has 48ET and the other 45ET in any case i'd recommend

      15mm spacers, Longer wheel bolts or stud conversion with 65mm stud.

      I'm waiting on my studs to come back from my friendly forum member then they're going on the car.

          Style, earlier ones are 18" version of the 16" ABY ones, then you have 2 later style ones, one 18" version of the S6 curvier spoke and then a seperate 18" multispoke




          Early ABY style = 4D0 601 025 N (Z17)
          New 1 = 4D0 601 025 T (Z17)
          New 2 = 4D0 601 025 F (Z17)

          Z17 being the paint code for Avus silver
