Default B5 s4 rims into b5 a4

Quick question guys im new here so goo easy...lol. Anyways i bought s4 rims but im wondering if there has to be any modifications done to it. It fits perfect but im worried that when i buy tires and mount them on the a4 that it will scrap anything my a4 is lowered a bit but. Also my lugs dont really hold the wheel properly does the s4 have different lug nuts or do i need spacers.....

I believe all Audi OEM wheels need ball seat lugs. Any aftermarket wheels are coned seat lugs. I would think that an OEM B5 S4 wheel should be a direct fitment.

Yeah today i put them on the only concern i had was that the lug nuts fit a bit odd maybe its just my lugs that do that. The s4 rims fit perfect its just only the lugs that i had an issue with. im wondering if i order new ones that it would change a bit

Did you have OEM rims before you installed your OEM S4 wheels? Do your lugs have more of a cone shape or more cuvy, like a shape of half a ball?

yea i have the oem 16 in audi wheels ......lugs are more like a half a ball shape im thinking that the lugs i have might be to long because it kinda stops turning after a bit hopefully i dont need spacers for this.... im gonna try them tomorrow and see what happens...

weird....it'll probably be cheaper to just buy shorter lug bolts.
