Default Deep Negitive Offset Wheels

I love the wheels on the 540i--the ones with the deep negative offset. Who makes those and can I get some for my A4 soon to be S4?

Default Deep Negitive Offset Wheels wouldn't work on the A4/S4...

...unless they were only about 5" wide. Consider the following: I have 16x7.5 ET35.If I change the offset to ET0, the wheel will stick out .69" more (out side the fender). If you go to a negative offset, you're just compounding the problem; you'd need a narrower wheel, to not protrude from the fender. OTOH, there are wheels that have a deep lip and the correct offset for the A4/S4 (Borbet Type T, for example); but the spokes are not flat like the 5-series deep lip wheels. HTH.
