We present preliminary results of a study of the abundance and age gradients of disc and spheroid components in galaxies selected from hydrodynamical cosmological simula- tions consistent with the concordance Λ- CDM models. Our simulated abundance and age gradients are in agreement with observa- tions at z = 0. Abundance gradients for disc components are found to be steeper at higher redshifts.
