genuine Rs4 wheels from an rs4 wont fit as thet have a huge offset as an rs4 has sticky out arches to fit them under. the same design wheel from a standard A4/A6 will fit.

TT/Golf wheels wont as they are 5/100 pcd. you will need 5/112 pcd for an A6 .

New shape A3/golf are the same pcd as A6"s at 112mm but have an offset the other way and sit too far under the arches , these will fit but dont look right, you really need to space them.



Ps .. imho rs6 style wheels look much better on an A6 than rs4 wheels. Take a look on my website (link in my profile) on the wheel page for pics of A6"s with different styles fitted .

for A4/6 I use 8x18 et 35 with 225/40/18 tyres.

It is possible they will fit. I have a 2007 A6 which has 19 inch RS4 wheels factory fitted as standard part of the A6 Le Mans package.

watch out for the tyres though, they are at least £250 per corner. 255/35 r19 96Y. make sure you have the 96Y extra load tyres.

My supplier told me new model A6 has a different offset to old shape but not sure what he said it was, the other model audis are going up towards et45-50 .

had a quick search and an Rs4 wheel is an et20 so Im fairly confident it would be as I suggested it will stick right out.

I think more detail is needed, if you are talking B5 RS4 wheels they will not fit anything else even though they look almost identical to those found on TT/S3, they have a different pcd. If you mean B7 RS4 sorry i don't know.

I have a set of Genuine Audi TT 18'' (RS4 Style 12-Spoke) alloys collecting dust in my garage if anyone is interested. The have a few minor marks but nothing major. All tyres bar one are also good.
