Will these fit my '07 S6 + Opinions Please

Hi All - I'm just starting down the path of some mods to my newly acquired 2007 S6. I picked up a lightly used set of KW v3 coilovers (not installed yet) and am looking the Antera 365 wheels you see pictured below.

Two things:

1. Will they fit? As you’ll see in the picture, the wheels are 9.0J x 20FH et = 30. Mounted on them are Michelin PS A/S tires (255/30 ZR20). The seller had them on his S4 and says he purchased them from someone who had them on a ’07 S6. But, I can't get in touch with the S6 owner to confirm.

2. What is your opinion on the looks / aesthetics? These wheels apparently go for $2k each...the seller is extremely motivated and is selling the wheels with the tires for a fraction of that.







Thanks,
Sammytown

I don't know enough about the S6 to confirm if they'll fit, but I think they look terrible. There's something about the spokes that make it look like a cheesy AZA or HP wheel. I think there are a lot of other wheels that would look good on your classy S6, like the HRE 943s.

Tirerack's wheels and tires for your car comes up as 20 x 9" et (40 to 42), 275/30 20".

Your offset: 10mm extended out.

Your tiresize: Smaller in diameter by 0.47 in, or 1.795% too fast. When you are actually doing 60 mph, your speedo will read 61 mph, or when you drive 30,000 miles, your odometer will have recorded 30,538 miles...

Personally I do not like these wheels but since you do good for you. I will tell you that I believe they are very heavy wheels. If you are getting a sweetheart deal all maybe good then.

There are many great wheels out there which are a good forged product and with great design and history.

Good luck

Not feeling the wheels, too blingy for such a classy ride. I would debadge if owned an S6 for a beast of a sleeper.

Thanks guys. Damon over at Tirerack helped me confirm the offsets on these are off by about 15 mm, so it's non-starter. I'm taking a pass.

The hunt continues and I'm open to suggestions for what might look good on the S6.

Sammytown.

A set of BBS wheels would look great, I think.

HRE or 360 Forged would look great, but so would BBS.

Im Glad they do not fit your car.. The wheels are horrible... especially for your beautiful car. Seeing them on a S6 would make me cry...Wheels are like jewelry for your car... 360 Forged has some of the best looking wheels I have seen... you also have HRE and Asanti Wheels... A nice deep lip would do wonders for the look and stance... Everyone is different, but to me if your gonna get rims.. spend the money and get a nice quality set... 3 piece, deep lip.. make it look sexy....

And PLEASE NO BBS... so tired and played out... I know that there are plenty of people on here that will flame me for this, but Im tired of seeing them on every BMW in the northeast.
