Can't seem to find a definate answer on this. It comes down to caliper clearance. Anyone out there *know* that 16" alloys (of some sort) will fit a B7?
Winter wheels....want narrower profile.

YOu are correct clearance is a problem with the big calipers but these do work and have considerable clearance. Check with the Tire Rack they know the JH3 fit.

The stock wheels from my 2003 A4 3.0 also fit. Many, many 16" wheels do no have the clearance so be very careful.

Thanks for all the input.
My dealer (in beautiful Britich Columbia) is suggesting the "Sport Edition" F7 wheels. They have not yet told me that they will fit "for sure".
I'm still looking...<ul><li><a href="http://www.tiretrends.com/wheel_catalog.php3?wheelID=6238">http://www.tiretrends.com/wheel_catalog.php3?wheelID=6238</a</li></ul>
