Default I'll tell you they will look ugly. Why are you asking what others think as far as looks go

its your car, do what you want with it and what you like. Once you do, then come back and ask whether people like it or not if that matters to you. Why would put something on your car if other like it or not if others don't like it. And next time, do say how you plan on doing it as somebody down the road may be reading your thread and assume BMW wheels fit Audi and go out and buy a set, only to find out they won't fit.

Default And add another 20+mm of adapter and you have negative offset, but ok, let him do it

Besides, I'm not even sure there are such adapters.

Default alright.. First Off: there are adaptors from BMW 5bolt to AUDI 4bolt!?! yea right, show us. 2nd:

yes, the wheels themselves *may* be cheap, but in the long run it will be expensive to put them on the car. You need to be a little less focused on single unit costs, and give a realistic assessment of what you actually need to accomplish.

It's likely that the offset of typical BMW wheels will screw you over. But if you want to waste your money, by all means go ahead
