Do the RS4 wheels fit the 02A4?
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/29912/rs4000021.jpg"></center><p>These wheels are great. My dealer has them in 17" but thats not good enough. I believe the RS4 has 18". The new A4 cabrio has them too, but they're 17" I think.
Anybody know if 18" RS4 rims will fit and where I can get em?
TIA.

No they don't, but Audi does make an 18" version of the wheel that does...
The true RS4 wheels are the incorrect offset for our cars (if you want to see them, they're listed under accessories for the allroad, which does have the correct offset, on Audi's site). However, someone on the S4 forum imported a set of the wheels that do fit our cars. They're made by Audi with the correct offset but they are mucho cash. Like $600-$700 per wheel and they are pretty heavy. Ask over there and someone can probably give you the part number of them.

I'll check out the "non-RS4" Audi wheels, if they're not available, too heavy or too expensive this is a nice alternative.

Stay away from 18" wheels on a 1.8t
Your standing starts will be brutal with these large wheels and before ther turbo has kicked in. (especially at a stop light going up hill.)
Remember that 18" wheels effect your acceleration and performance greatly. Even if your car is chipped, that won't matter from 0-10mph (or under 2200 RPM).
I'd stay with 17" inchers at the largest.
