[s-cars] Wheels & tires from C4 S6 to B6 S4

[Bruce Mendel]

Are spacers the issue? He's talking about going to a lower offset, which if
anything should help with caliper clearance by pushing the wheels farther
out into the wheelwell.

Maybe it's diameter? Does anyone know if ANY 17" wheels will clear those
calipers?
