Anyone know where I can purchase these older Euro S8 rims?
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/56478/s8-2.jpg"></center><p>I remember a while back when I purchased my car, I met a guy who had a black B5 with them on. Loved the OEM look. I *think* spacers would be needed for them to fit on our car, but not 100% certain. Any info on these rims, fitment, & where I can get my hands on them would be great. Thanks.

I think the offset ( ET) is different but
in Europe the 2000S4s have them 8x17 and the B6 S4 has 8x18s with a better offset.
Only S8s had those rims in the UK and they are like hen's teeth as the B4 S2 guys use them....

I have the U.S. version S8 wheels. 18x8 ET48 on my A3.

The wheels are a little different then the ones in the Euro S8, but It will be a lot cheaper and easier to get the U.S. wheels used from someone.
