that all checks out Jake as others have said but you may well need to put 10 or 15mm spacers on your front wheels at least. Singh's 9" wheels were on a later S8 which had a slightly different brake and suspension set up to earlier FL cars and all PF cars (which yours is) - it is possible you will get some rubbing on the inner edges if you dont space them but as long as you are aware of this then its the worst case scenario that you might need to do this.

You also need to check the thickness at the hub to make sure that you dont need longer wheel bolts but again you can do this once you have the wheels there and measure against the existing ones.

Great wheels - they look great on a D2 I think one of the German A8 Freunde guys has already used them too!



They also fit D3's -
