d3 sport wheels on d4?
 
hi will these 19" wheels from the D3 sport package (2007)
fit a 2011 D4 sport?
want to go down from 20 to 19 for ride quality.

Yes and no. The D4 like many other audi's switched to a 66.56mm hub from 57mm. (D3, C6, B7 and earlier Audi's all use 57mm, D4, C7, B8 all use 66.56)

Bolt pattern works fine, you'll likely be okay with brakes (unless you have an S8, because those rotors are huge) you are screwed when it comes to the hub. If these are reproduction wheels you might be okay, if they are oem you will need to find a machine shop to bore out wheel hub. (I did this with a set of 20's) It set me back about $160 or 40/wheel. Also you will need to have the bare rim, IE tires removed from the rim to do this type of work. The shop that did the work for me got it within 1/2000th of an inch of 66.56 mm.
