So i found out Audi wheels fit...
And very well at that!
i swapped the winter tires and oem E63 wheels off my benz to put on my wifes 08 audi a5 s-line. couldn't find 19's for her stock wheels and did some research to find out that the oem e63 wheels will fit perfectly. the lug screws from the audi fit on the benz too. same thread pitch but diff conical's.
so, swapped them out today, runs perfectly. no rubbing at all. 255/35/19 all around and i believe the rims are 19x8.5 32mm et
and of course..i had to swap them today, right when we got hit with snow... what a ***...

I am actually storing the Benz in winter. The rwd does not work well at my house since I have a 1/5mi driveway that is all uphill. I need 4wd to get up in the winter time. I have a suburban so I'm just drive that in winter. Saves the quality of the 63 then u know...
Actually no, the bores are 66.56 from both cars so no rings were needed. I guess I got super lucky in this swap. No spacers either, thats just bolted on using the Audi lugs as well.

I did the same swap a couple of months ago and yes, they are a direct swap, I was not completely sold on the look though. They do sit nice in the fenders.

That's cool! I came from an RS4 and thought the same thing when looking for wheels for the E63. I have a set of Forgestars I am thinking about putting on the E63 next spring, but they are not staggered. 19x9 all around. I don't know if I could get a meaty enough tire on the rears.

Those wheels actually fit the audi quite well
