My nephew is trading up a leased Q5 to a Q7 and his Q5 18 inch winter rims are coming to me. Offset is the same ET36.

The bolt patterns are the same, 5 X 112 but the center bore is 66.5 Q5 versus 57.1 for the Q3... so they would fit... with a 9.4/2 = 4.7 gap at center.

I have never tried this... do the wheels lose stability if the center bore is too big? or do the bolts truly do all the centering required?

Should I avoid using them, they have good Pirelli snows mounted.

Roger?

I found the rings needed on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/BLOXSPORT-centric-Aluminum-hubrings-Vehicle/dp/B0719HC71S/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1516661934&sr=1-1&keywords=57.1+66.5

Is this a safe thing to do?

I think, you can do this..and it should be safe. but you should confirm first with your dealer...

The lug bolts actually take care of all the centering providing the hole is already big enough - but rings help positioning that's all ...
