[QUOTE=equ;23852225]I hope to go 17" as well, 245/45-17 or 225/50-17... But I don't think the tirerack website is not yet finalized on wheels for the b8 s4, while it spits out some results, you can get it to do silly things. Somewhere online I saw one of their employees commenting that they don't have a car to do test fits just yet. So 18" will be safer. Or we wait for people to test fit stuff...
Car was measured/scanned/shot on Friday. Wheel fitments will be posted to tirerack.com shortly.

We have test fit and confirmed several 17" options that clear the brakes. To view the style and prices, see the winter section of our site here :

Just for anyone who was curious.
The B8 has a different wheel center bore vs. previous models.
The B8 is 66.6. Older Audis (and my VW R32) is 57.1.
Looks like I'll be looking for new wheels AND winter tires.
