We've been getting lots of calls about 18" snow packages for the new RS4s so I thought I'd share some fitment information and product options.
The factory 255-35-19 tire specs out at 26.02" diameter, to go to a skinnier 18" winter tire a 225-45-18 specs out to 25.97".
with a 225 width snow tire an 8" wide wheel is recommended, we have 3 wheels currently that will clear the RS4 calipers without spacers:

18x8" ET 35 B7 RS4-242 High Clearance $260-each
18x8" ET 35 Concept Nuvo for $260-each
18x8" ET 35 New Turbo on sale for $650-set!

We have a link on our Achtuning.com site to purchase tires from The Tire Rack, you can have your tires sent directly to us and we will mount and balance them for free on our wheels, please use the link on our site to purchase as it pays for your mounting and balancing.

The ET 35 wheels will look inset as compared to a stock wheel, this will have the effect of not throwing up as much crud and dirt on the side of the car during driving. If you prefer a more flush look spacers can be added to push the wheel out for a more agressive look.

Please call to order as we don't have our B7 RS4 section up on Achtuning.com yet, thank you!

...work well, in terms of weight, etc?

Some nice options. Thanks.

we do have some 8.5" and 9" available but they are not all that light.

Why don't you guys make the forged B7RS4 reps in 18"?

Do you know if the Audi TPMS will work with these wheels ?

Skyler@Achtuning.com

There's a reason that forged wheels are so darn expensive
Plus it would mean that our 18" versions would have to be almost as expensive as the 19" versions and the 19s are already harder to move than we'd like.

The OEM TPMS is all integrated into the valvestem so it transfers over fairly easily, we also sell replacement OEM style Beru TPMS senders for a bit under $400-set.

Those are some nice options with some great pricing, thanks for posting. I emailed Achtuning two weeks ago regarding winter wheels for the RS4 but never heard back, so I went with the Tirerack.com winter setup.
