Default Will B5 Celebration wheels fit on a B5 S4?

Wheels in question: https://www.audiforums.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=133654
I (and a few interested buyers) am wondering if these will fit over the stock S4 brakes. I have searched and found pictures of S4's with them but I couldn't find out if spacers were necessary. They are 17x7.5 ET43 with 225/45. Thanks in advance

you may need wheel spacers. stock et is 35 on the s4 and the brakes are already pretty close

I just tried putting a set of these on my 2000 S4 today. The tires will fit just fine, but the wheels will hit the calipers if you have a full brake pad thickness.

I had to put the outer pads back on the front in order for the wheels to clear the calipers. It looks like an 8mm spacer in the front will solve the problem. The rear seem to fit fine.

Don't forget to get longer lugs.


Hmm...note! I have the 18" RS4 wheel (8" width). Now I'm not so sure if they would work for you.
