Default S8 wheels on S6

Hey Guys,

I'm looking at buying a S6 and one of the cars I'm looking at appears to have S8 wheels on it. I suspect these are replica wheels but I can't tell since I am buying the car remote.

Maybe these are the wheels?

Any issues with these wheels rubbing...etc? Should I be concerned? I really like the way they look! Any thoughts? Are these wheels really 21"?

By the way, I have 21 x 10's and there is no rubbing, no noise.

The S8 wheels are 21x9 ET35 which will be a good looking offset that's not going to rub. One thing to be aware of is that the stock S8 tire size is 265/35-21 which is a bigger diameter than the stock 255/35-20. I don't think there will be any clearance issue, but your speedometer will read a little slow (63.8 mph at an indicated 60 for a Pirelli Pzero).
