Default 03' RS6 or S6 wheel in my 01' allroad?

Got some local friends with these (same vintage)sweet rides and was wondering if their wheels plug and play into the allroads? Nothing wrong with mine, heater even works at 120k but I dig their wheels alot more than the ar. Would the radio controls be compatible?

Sure would love the NAV in the dash the RS6 has...that must be tough to retro-fit?

Default OEM RS6 wheels are ET30 and OEM S6 (2003) wheels are ET35. Probably need spacers?

isn't the offset on allroad wheels ET20 or ET25?

Default Oh...steering wheel (thanks finiki!), yes it would physically fit but...

...you have a 6-speed, so the paddleshift RS6 3-spoker would be useless, only "upgrade" would be the punched leather. There is a 4-spoke version of the air leather with the radio controls (via airbag) but also has tiptronic buttons which would be useless in your 6-speed.

I think there might be a regular 4-spoke steering wheel with air leather, but I'd have to check out the ETKA at home for that.

No idea is the radio controls would be compatible...
