Default I dont think they fit...

I guess you need to get spacers to clear the front HP2 calipers

Default this is a popular question lately - you'll need 15mm spacers to clear the hp2's - you may

want to look into wheels with the correct offset that would fit without spacers (i wish i had) as new spacers and longer lugs will run you about $235 shipped

Default A4 and A6 have same offset and the wheels have to fit your 2.7T

I have seen many 2.7T's with those wheels. Dont worry

Default Yeah, but most of the ones I've seen were either the RS6 "winter" wheels or replicas...

which have different offsets than the OEM S-line version.

Default you've seen many with those wheels, but et43's won't fit over hp2's, you need

a wheel w/ et25 to be safe or 15mm spacers with those wheels would probably be fine

Default Maybe, maybe not. HP-2 calipers are the limiting factor.

Just because the offset, bolt circle and other specs are the same, doeps not mena a6 and a4 stuff will fit a 2.7t car with HP2 brakes

Yup. You'll need spacers or wheels with more agressive offset to clear HP2s.
