I don't think real RS4 wheels fit on an A4... Could be wrong.

[AudiWxGuy]

From what I've heard, they do not fit. Maybe with spacers?

I think real RS4 wheels are like et29, and spacers would just make it worse. My wheels are et32, and they're really close to touching the fenders...

[Brent27]

check on tire rack to find the correct fitting on a rs4 and compare ! your lucky if they do ...good deal

[enigma1406]

Yup. 19x9 et29. You'll need to roll the fenders or do something to allow more clearance. The wheels look really nice since they fit really flush with the wheel arches.

[johntesi]

I almost did this. Roll the fenders just a little bit, should be able to do this for $150-200. Will look incredible with the width and concavity of the stock RS4 wheels!!

Someone on AW did it on his silver B7 S4. He did have to roll the fenders. I'll see if I can find the link...

In case the link doesn't work, here is a snip-it from the post:
"1: OEM RS4 Wheels

Specs: 19x9 et29, 27 lbs a wheels. After 20,000 miles on these wheels they are still running strong and undamaged (even after driving on these POS N.J. roads), no bends or warps on the wheels after hitting numerous potholes around here so that's a big plus. They will fit over any BBK you plan on running.

The catch: In order to run these wheels in your stock B6/B7 fenders with a lowered suspension you will need to have both the front and rear fenders rolled/stretched outwards.

The only size tire you can use is a 245/35/19 tire. 255 is nearly impossible to eliminate the rubbing no matter how much you roll out the fenders. If you plan on using 235 tires with these wheels than please save your money and dont bother, you might as well stay with your stock wheel/tires since they are already 235 (regardless, it's not wise to put a 235 tire stretched out on a 19x9 wheel, any pothole you hit will destroy the rims of the wheel due to inadequate tire protection)."

if u pull fenders like crazy and strech the shit outa the tire, then maybe, other then that the offset is too much

yes and dont daily the car lol

[WhiteVenomA4]

the rims will come with it's original tires... My car is still on it's s line suspension... Now that u guys have more details.. Is there any difference other than rolling the fenders ?

[enigma1406]

You might still rub. Stock tires are 255s I believe.

[nick71692]

I actually just got to see this done on a friends a4 and it looks good for the rear setup, it looks totally stupid in the front. They are way to wide and look like a low rider with the wheels sticking out real far. Not sure how you fix that but it looked horrible. Good luck

[WhiteVenomA4]

so what if i roll the fenders?

[CoreyRandmetz]

i don't think that you can roll the fender that much at all to make a difference for these wheels to fit or not. maybe someone else can chime in?

[Louis J.]

Man, you guys gotta read. Autoverruckt already gave you the answer. I saw that post too and it looks great but you have to roll the fenders AND pull the fenders AND use 245 tires instead of the stock 255, otherwise they won't work.

[KMHPaladin]

Stock tires are not 255s.

[MOFSTEEL]

Stock tires are not 255s.

On an Rs4 they are

Here is the sex





Hope he doesn't mind I snagged his pics for proof that it is possible, just a lot of 'quality' work needs to be done.

[WhiteVenomA4]

DID he roll out the fenders?
is that dropped ? or stock suspension?

hey man, the answers right in front of you.. gotta read the replies

and no, he's not on sport suspension, he's lowered.

[volcomic]

There's really nothing to "roll" on the front fenders. He had to have a body shop stretch his fenders out so they'd clear the wheels. Wheels that are et29 and 9" wide are not gonna fit without some serious pulling of the fender.

[autoverruckt]

OT: That silver S4 makes me a little sad - I miss that beautiful V8 rumble and torque. *sigh*

Back on topic - whitevenom you should contact Kryptonic for advice/help. Otherwise, AZ has great classifieds as I have sold many items on it.

[WhiteVenomA4]

i got it. Pictures coming soon.

They fit.. stick out a bit in front... it rubs only when going over bumps too fast...(i will fix that problem soon enough)
So to anyone who said this wouldnt work... well it does.
Fail on your end.

if you were going to put the wheels on regardless of us saying no why ask if they fit to begin with? You Fail.

[enigma1406]

The people that actually know what they're talking about said it would work but that you'll rub. Learn to read. I hope you're not planning on lowering it...because then that will just be retarded.

Wheels sticking out of your fenders and rubbing = fail in my book. We didn't say you couldn't bolt them on the car, we said it's gonna take some work to stop them from rubbing on bumps and under agressive driving conditions. What do you think is gonna happen when you lower it?

whitevenom let's see some pics!!
