20" A8 RS4 style wheels..
thinking of getting a new S6, but not a huge fan of the stock 19", I am aware of all the aftermarket choices, but was just wondering if the new A8 RS4 style 20's would fit on an S6? if not, does any company make replicas in 20" thanks.

Unlikely. The A8 has a diff offset compared to the A6. However, the 19" RS4 rims
fit right on. I've seen the OEM item on a C6, and it looks great. The 19" OEM forged rim, similar to the one shown in the Hartmann site also fits right on, and is the lightest 19" OEM rim currently available.
Think you may have ride comfort issues switching to 20", given that the thread below talks about the ride being relatively hard and tight on the S6.

Re: 20" A8 RS4 style wheels..
driven a C6 with a dropped suspension, can't be stiffer than that and that doesn't bother me. Have full bilstein pss9 system w/19" on my s4 so I am used to that type of ride

I had the old fin style A8 20" replica's on my A6 w/35et & it fit fine
Rubbed a little but then again I've dropped my A6 with Eibachs & Koni FSD's. I haven't checked the website in a while but
www.lakeshorewheelandtire.com specializes in replica rims & it's where I purchased the replica A8's.
