Default A6 4.2 8 spoke wheels on a 2.7T

I thinking of getting the factory 8 spoke 17" wheels that come as an option on the A6 4.2 for my 2.7T. Does any one know or have any pictures of an 2.7T with these wheels.

1. Will they fit? 35mm vs. 45 mm offset for the 2.7 wheels.

Thanks,

Default All OEM factory 4.2 wheels will fit 2.7 just fine. But...

where, if not from an Audi dealer, are you planning to buy them and for how much?

I can get the wheels for $180.00 each. I have one that I've been trying and it rubs against the front brake caliper on my 2.7T. I was told that I need a 10mm spacer.

I thought that the brake systems were identical on the 4.2 vs. 2.7T?

Default Strange. I thought the same thing. Are you sure they're OEM? Where,

if you don't mind me asking, can you get them for $180 ea?

They are definitly refurbished factory wheels, they look perfect. I'm going to try 10mm spacers.
