Default Wheels question

I just bought a low miles '01 S8 but I'm not a big fan of the S wheels. I like the achtuning.com RS4 DTM Style Wheel they sell for several Audi models, S6 and RS6 included. Unfortunately they don't list the S8. I've sent them an e-mail with the question if these wheels would fit the S8 with no reply for 2 weeks now. Would you guys know the answer? Thank you!

Default Almost certain they will

Do you know the width and offset? You can easily go to et32 with an 8" wide wheel.

And if you want to sell your Avus wheels, I would be interested.

Default Ask in the S4 forum if anyone knows the wheel's offset ....

As Paul said, for an 8" width, anything will work from the ET48 of the original Avus to ET32. 18x8 ET35 wheels are very common.

Default Have you tried to call them?

I hear they are good guys. I believe the wheels will fit though. The DTM is a great look IMO. If Paul doesn't buy your Avus wheels I would be interested.
