2004 S4 Rims...18''

[JHousyS4]

The OEM 2004 S4 rim is a tad bigger...no? I was thinking of putting them on in replace of the 17'' 2001 s4 rim. Any suggestions? Think it will look nice?

Look, here they are on eBay.

For the right price I think it would be pretty sweet.

get the OEM RS6 wheels instead. that will look waaaaaay better IMHO

I like them, even if they are freakin' heavy!!! If you like 'em, get 'em!

They look nice, talk to imperialS4, he has those on his S4.

[MR VTEC]

isnt the offset off?

Imperial has S8 wheels on his car. And yes those will fit.

A pic of those wheels on a B5 S4 was posted on AW a while ago. Maybe do a search. IMO it didn't look good....

I have S8 wheels on my car. They're 18" Avus wheels. The B6 S4 also comes with 18" Avus wheels, HOWEVER the design is different. The spokes are slightly wider and the trapezoidal part at the end is at sharper angles with a shallower groove. Personally, I'm not so much a fan of the new Avus wheels, whcih is why I went with the S8's instead.

As for the offset, I'm not sure what they are for the new S4 18" Avus'. The offset for my S8 18" Avus' was definitely different, though, which is why I'm running spacers.

Well, if they fit on my B5 S4, I think they'll fit on yours, too. Unless you got a special kind or something

I don't know what model-year S8 my wheels came from, but since the S8 only saw production from 2001-2003, the wheels have to have come from one of those years.

I have more I can post later, if you'd like...

Holy Sh1t. That is exactly how i want my car to look. (check the sig) Those rims are hot, i love they way they look, especially in 18. Where did you get them? Also, what tires are those with the red writing on the tire? P-Zeros? Also, how wide is the s8 rim? Could i fit a 245 in the rear..235 in the front? Let me know! Thanks

Thanks for the compliments! I think the car looks pretty hot, too I got the wheels from someone who was selling them over on AudiWorld. He has a similar setup. The tires are PZero Rosso Asimmetrico in 235/40/18 (rosso = red in Italian, hence the red lettering). The rims are 8" wide. I'm not exactly sure if you could do 235 front/245 rear...it isn't a setup that particularly appeals to me, so I didn't research it very much.


one more pic for...well, for sh!ts and giggles
