Default should work...but, them things are like boat anchors

I have the 17 Avus and they tip the scales like 28lbs with out tires. The wheels u looking to get....they gotta be over 30lbs each with out tires..U gonna be 1 second slower 0-60mph(sarcastic)

Default Perhaps, but perhaps not.

The 18x8 S8 Avus wheels (same style as the B5 S4) only weigh 1 lb. more than the S4 ones.

I haven't heard the weight of the B6 S4 Avus wheels yet.
