Hmmm...was at the local tire store today getting my summer/wheels and tires mounted...and
was browsing thru a catalog of wheels. I saw some wheels from A!Avantgarde that looked nice...There was a really nice 6 spoker. I wonder if they clear the S4 front brakes. anyone know?

Markbradford just picked up a set on the A4 forum.
They didn't clear his APR SIII brakes. He ended up with a 5mm spacers to buy the extra clearance he needed. I can't remember the name of the set he bought, but put a post up on the A4 forum and ask him. I think they were six spokers though.

A!Avantgarde (the company) no longer exists AFAIK, but their 3-piece SLR does fit ------->
I dont' think the 1-piece SL clear though.

If it fits, it's by a very small margin. I know the 3 piece does not fit on an A4 with APR/Stoptech
calipers. A friend of mine ended up hunting for spacers at the 11th hour, when installing the brake kit.

Well, SPP has them listed on their site.
I thought it was that the U.S. distributor had gone out of business, but the company still exists in Europe. But SPP seems to have the connections to get the wheels.<ul><li><a href="http://www.supremepowerparts.com/avantgardewheels.htm">A!</a></li></ul>
