How soon do you think once the 3.0T Q5 comes out will you have tuning for it?

hello?

[Dion@Achtuning]

My crystal ball says... Nada.

I'm sure APR will announce availability once they do/complete development on that platform.

[Dion@Achtuning]

When you buy a StopTech Big Brake Kit from Achtuning, we send you a FREE set of matching (OE-sized) rear rotors, pads, and stainless-steel braided brake lines! We'll even ship you these brake parts for free if your order is being delivered to any of the "lower 48" States!!

What other reasons could you possibly need to shop for a BBK at Achtuning? Simply click on the image above to be directed to our website for an online order or call us at 425-895-0000.

APR is overseas. Europe usually get these models before they come to the states. So expect within a year from arriving to the states. Maybe less.

We determined the QuattroWorld.com Audi Q7 needed 18mm DR style H&R wheel spacers up front and 30mm DRA style spacers out back to even out the "stance" and give the Q7 a much more aggressive look. Mission accomplished!

What width,offset,spacers would you need to get the exact same stance on a Q5 with the Hartmann HRS6-204?

Jim negotiated a Hartmann Wheel install when he bought his new Audi Q5 from Audi Wilsonville in Oregon. Soon after taking delivery, Jim was on our door step in anticipation of having the 20" Hartmann HRS6-204 Wheels thrown on his new ride! The factory offsets are always a bit on the weak side and we mentioned to Audi Wilsonville that the 20x9 +25mm offset would be a better fit for the Q5, filling the fenders out nicely and giving it that much needed, aggressive stance. We're glad they went for it, and we're happy to report Jim is a happy customer!

So these are not Hartmann wheels? OEM?

What width,offset,spacers would you need to get the exact same stance on a Q5 with the Hartmann HRS6-204?

Hard to say as the Q7 and Q5 are completely different applications but our 20x9.0" ET25 offset is pretty flush on the Q5.

So these are not Hartmann wheels? OEM?

The wheels on the Q7 are OEM Audi, the wheels on the Q5 are Hartmanns.

Flush with the front fender or rear?

Recently ordered H&R spacers (18 mm front and 30 mm rear) from Achtuning for my S-line Q7 and what a difference they make! Here are few pics.

[SEXICÄN]

Do you know if H&R will be possibly coming out with coilover for the Q5 3.0T?

yes I do have your number, but on my phone and hard to find time to call...

[Dion@Achtuning]

Should be speed dial #2 (for "A")

Haven't heard anything about a coil-over kit becoming available from H&R. (yet)

Dion is your Q7 adaptive air, coilovers or springs? I love the setup but I do not have adaptive air and hate how high our Q sits. I would really love to improve on the stance.

Thx, Dave

[Dion@Achtuning]

^ That Quattroworld.com Audi Q7 TDI does have the adaptive air suspension, then lowered beyond factory specs using Ross-Tech's VCDS cable and software. The only option we have to lower a Q7 that isn't sitting on air is H&R's Sport Spring kit which brings the vehicle down approximately 1.4" up front and 1.3" out back.

Would love to see pics if anyone has any. How is the ride? I thought that I read awhile back that the ride was more bouncy than stock and the rear would sag some do to the excessive weight. I could be incorrect but any truth to this?

Dave

[Dion@Achtuning]

Not my ride. Can't say from personal experience. The owner of the rig is [email protected] - perhaps ping him on his forum?

+1 for 22 inch HRS6 wheels

Yes please!

[Dion@Achtuning]

It's happening.

[Cottonmouth]

It's happening.

Do you have an ETA? I need them in the spring for when my winters come off.

[Skyler@Achtuning]

Do you have an ETA?

Rough ETA of 10 weeks at this time.

[Cottonmouth]

That's gonna cut it pretty close.

Is it safe to us H&R springs with OEM q7 struts? I've heard that the ride is bouncier than stock. Would the lowered springs prematurely wear out the stock struts?

[Dion@Achtuning]

Safe? Absolutely. Bouncier ride? Subjective. And there is always a chance stock shocks will prematurely wear when adding just a spring kit. I have yet to see that happen. (Doesn't mean it doesn't) As long as you're prepared for what could happen and would prefer to have that look then it's a non issue.

do you have any pics of these on a Q7 yet?

[Dion@Achtuning]
