Default Questions for Gary - winters for my A5

I'm considering a set of Dunlop SP Winter 3D's on 17" OZ Ultraleggeras. I have some questions though:

1. Will they clear the stock brakes?
2. I think the offset is the same as my stock 18's, but does the different size rim matter?
3. Can I use my existing lugs? I'd rather not have two different wheel locks to keep straight.
4. Anything I've missed? - I know I need new TPMS sensors.

thanks in advance!

1. Yes, these clear the stock brakes with no problem.

2. I don't list your exact factory wheel offset, but these heels do fit perfectly with no problem.

3. These wheels require different lugs that are included with the wheels at no charge.

4. Looks like you have it all covered. TPMS sensors add $62 per corner and we'll install them in the wheels and tires when we do the mount and balance on the package. Refer to "gary/Audiworld" at the end of the online order as your previous contact.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/winter/index.jsp">winter</a></li></ul>
