Default Fat 5 Question

Hey all. Quick question. I see that the fat 5s are pretty popular amongst varrying individuals here and on the Vortex. My question is, are they popular/valuable enough to warrant a swap with a set of 18" S4 9-spokes circa 2001? I LOVE those wheels, and don't really like the 5s, so I was kind of curious what everybody thought. Thanks in advance, and if anybody is interested, let me know. Thanks all.

Default S4 didnt have 9 spoke and they were 17". even if you mean RS4 18", wrong bolt pattern...

if you want to swap with another TT owner, than ok... but fat 5's are still lighter.

My bad. I thought those 9 spokes were originally on the S4, and I was pretty certain they came in an 18. Maybe they were just another wheel option on the TT I guess. The weight factor isn't as important because they are my winter wheels. Summer/track time I get the light forged ones out. Thanks for the input. If you have anymore ideas, please let me know.
