Good way to double the value of your car overnight, though.

Default Because yer a n00b....

....and n00b's should search

I'm just being a jerk, need my coffee. All in good fun.

OK, serious answer.....

The offset will make them stick out beyond the wheel well and the tires are too wide and will rub. You need 18 x 7.5 or 8 with ET43-40 offset with a 235/40/18 width tire. There are several versions of this wheel, OEM and replica that will work on a 98 A6. My pic poster has 17 x 7.5 ET43 the RS4 type wheel which were OEM on my former A6. The search feature is a powerfull tool....<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/search/">https://www.audiworld.com/search/</a</li></ul>
