Default B6 Avant Sport Wheel on B5 - Pics
Put the wheels from my B6 Avant onto the B5 for kicks. The wheels are tucked because of the high factory offset. Not my favorite wheel, but I thought I would post in case anyone was interested in trying this. The suspension in the pic is about 2" lower than non-sport factory B5 height.

Default For those of you for whom wheel weight is so critical, may I suggest a different car?
If a 29 pound wheel is too heavy for a 3500 pound car, then you might be happier in an Elise or Miata or something itty bitty.

Default not for me
I am not a fan of those even on the B6A4-avant.
