Default Hmmm...are the 5 spoke OEM wheels gonna fit on the S4?

If we were using 225/50/16 R compound tires on OEM 5-spoke wheels for driving schools (track use)...are they gonna fit on the S4? That caliper sure does stick out far. Yikes...anyone want to buy some nice race tires?

The caliper is in the way. (Tried them for winter tires, but had to go with the 6x16 wheel specially made for the S4).

Default Can you post a picture of the 16" wheel?

Anders, what country are you in? Sweden? Germany? UK? Just curious.

Default Re: 6x16 Speedline wheel...

Hi Steve,
It's the same wheel as on the two yellow Avants that the A4 .orgers saw in Ingolstadt, follow the URL below.

I'm in Sweden so your first guess was accurate. I've had my S4 since late March this year (99.5/silver/onyx/alu), and I am extremely happy with it. I've put some 7000km on it and no problem what so ever (except for the speeding ticket risk ;-).

Default Didn't try them. They are very uncommon.

In fact can't remember ever seeing them on a car. The 5 spokes are the ones that everybody seems to get (or stick with the 15" std wheel and go aftermarket).
