Default Is it possible to use 12x1.5 bolts on our S4's?

I have a set of wheels that were drilled to MB specs. 5x112 but with 12mm wide lug holes. I'm not sure if I want to go through the hassle of having them widened. I noticed that our hubs have 5 extra holes, do those support 12x1.5 bolts or am I SOL?

Drill the wheels or get tuner/conversion lugs.

Default Thank you for the help. I def. won't take this task on myself, I'll have a shop with a mill or drill

press do it for me. I'll contact PureMS soon about bolts. I might be throwing on a 5mm spacer in the rear for poops and giggles. I'll need to get hubcentric rings as well, center bore on these Work wheels is 66.5 ala benz, I'll need one from that to the Audi 57.1mm bore.
