They should do without any spacers etc. if the offset is also 35, but I would be unsure about the performance requirements as I imagine the RS6 is much heavier than the RS4. I considered the new RS4 alloys earlier in the year but was warned off. You may equally of course be fine!!! The best thing for spacial fit is to ask a favour of an RS4 owner and see if you can take his alloy off his car for 5 mins to see if it will fit on the front, as the front suspension and brakes are what you need to clear as I am sure you are aware that ther is very little clearance.
