Default Eddie@TireRack: Q about AT Itala S5s & A6 2.7t

I have been looking for wheels with a machined/polished finish for my A6 2.7t.

According to the Tire Rack upgrade garage, the machined finish S5s are only available on the 18" wheels, which apparently do not fit the A6 2.7t. (Do the brake calipers get in the way?)

Will the 18" wheels actually fit?
Or can I get the machined finish in 17"?

I plan to mount these on Yokohama AVS dB at either 235/45-17 or 235/40-18.

Thanks, Nirad

Default Nirad... I have the S5-CHROMES on my 2.7T ....

I had them installed before I took delivery just 2 weeks ago, along with S-02 PP's. My 2.7T with PST is Melange/Melange, and I think the they look great together.....very easy to keep clean!!!
Pictures will follow shortly with my new digital camera. Mine are 17" with 235/45-17 PP's.

Default I want "polished" or "machined" finish, not chrome...

To see the difference, go to the Tire Rack upgrade garage, and choose A6 2.8, NOT 2.7t.
You will see an 18" set of S5s with the machine finish.
