Jimmy, could you clarify this more systematically, specifically:
1) Are you saying urS4 hubs will mount to CQ hub carriers?
2) or are you saying this is an entire conversion: you need the urS4 hub
carriers, brake parts etc?
3) What are the offset differences, eg the CQ results in a wheel offset
of 37mm; what is the urS4 offset?
4) If the urS4 hub does mount to the CQ carrier, and you retain the S2
rear hubs, won't you need front wheels with a different offset than the
rears?
I can't remember the specifics of 6-7 year old debates, but I thought
the consensus was long since established that this swap didn't make
sense? It used to be an issue of availability, but with so many euro
parts resources I assume S2 hubs are no more expensive than urS hubs.
WRT brake upgrade cost, I guess maximizing options is a good thing, but
the bira route at least is no more expensive for an S2 than any other
Audi.
