Default Any fitment issues with 18" wheels on a B8.5 S4?

Hi, new to this forum. Apologies if this is the wrong place to put this and if it's already been answered. I did a bunch of searching, but couldn't find a definitive answer.

I'm looking to buy these 18" A4 wheels for snow season. Are there any known fitment issues with 18" wheels on the front calipers?



Also does anyone know the name of these wheels?

Thanks!

Quattro, welcome aboard! Open up your Owner's Manual and you will find all the wheel sizes that fit your car in the tire inflation section.


You can also check with Tire Rack and see what they suggest for the car.

Not sure but make sure they clear the brakes and have a 66.6 mm center bore.

Figured out these wheels are originally from a Q5. The center bore is 66.6mm, the offset appears to be 39mm. Is that within an acceptable range for the S4?

In case anyone is looking for the answer later, I still don't know the name of these wheels, but they do indeed fit.




Now just to finish painting them.
