Just curious if anyone knows if 2011 S5 B8 wheels would fit stock 2006 S4 B7? Anything would help. Thanks fellas.

No - the hub for B8 vehicles are bigger than the B7 hub. There may be adapters that will work. I have seen B8 RS5 wheels on a B7 RS4 so it may be possible

I've not had much success with those hub centric adapter rings in the past. Quattros, especially in older models, are very sensitive to wheel balance and I had lots of eventual vibrations and found the wheels almost impossible to balance properly. Had a couple of the ring adapters crack as well. I'd recommend sticking to the correct sized wheel hub.
