RS6 alloys on b5 s4

[silver99s4]

Has anyone put these on their S4? I'm sure someone has tyres are 245/40/18. I have also RS6 Calipers and discs coming. What spacers would i need and length of wheel bolts?

Thanks

Yep i've had mine for 5 years now....I only run 225/40/18 though...

Looks fantastic mate! I thought they looked a bit wide when I put them on today and was worried that maybe they weren't the right fitment! New spacers required methinks!

also mate can I ask what lowering option you went for? Looks about perfect thanks

Nice one for the comments mate.....the tyre your using will make them look wide...your using a 245 width? so yours would be 20mm wider than normal 225 which is what i use......I've got it lowered on H&R coilovers complemented by the thick H&R ARB's front and back.....Works well for me

FYI the RS6 alloys are 19@ of that style...

I think on the B5 the 18s look about right, but they'll be B6 or B7 A4 items to fit.

Not being funny mate but can you just explain what you've said a little better...

Hi - sure.

The 5 arm wheel like yours for the B5 S4 you've got is an A4 item - from either a B6 or B7 model. Audi did not make a 19" option for the B5, or B6, and the only B7 19" was the RS4 which has the wrong offset for a narrow body car.

The actual RS6 version of the 5 arm style only came as 19" and again with the wide body offset.

Personally I think the 18" looks better suited to a B5 car.

they did make 18" wheels for the RS, available as a factory option in 18x8J with 255/35 tyres. tended to be for winter options.

I had the OEM but not RS6 ones on my car for a while but they must be a different offset to the genuine RS6 options as mine didn't clear the 8 pot RS6 brakes

Then: 18x8J ET 35 on 235/40's


now:18x8.5J ET24 on 245/40 (now 235/40's)

Thats better, i understand what your saying now....

My wheels were sold to me as RS6 reps about 4-5 years ago now, but i hear what your saying....
