Re: 5k/2c wheels

Yes, I think it will work fine.
	The A6 wheels (like A4 ones) same as my Dads Car fit great.  The
S4 wheels I thought were the same size.  16x7.5 I thought.  Either way, I
have heard of this working before as well.  Its definately worth a try.
New A4 Sport Package wheels may work to.  I think they are ET 40.
