How will 04+ S4 18" AVUS wheels sit on a stock B5 S4?

I know the 04+ S4 18" wheels will fit our cars STOCK, but will it actually raise the car or lower the car or pretty much stay the same with the STOCK suspension B5? Looking to put some 18" S4 wheels on my 2000 S4, any pics too would be nice

I have B6 wheels with Vogland coilovers and 8mm spacers. I tried to set my ride height(26") so the wheel gap is even and had the alignment set to stock and have been very happy.

B6 S4 18" Avus wheels will fit on the B5. However, when you install new brake pads upfront, they wheels will not clear the calipers. You'll need a 5-10mm spacer to clear the calipers.

I ended up buying B6 S4 replicas with an offset of ET35 compared to the B6's ET45.
