Default New car and I have a question

1)Yesterday, I bought a 1999 audi a4 2.8 quattro with S4 Rims. When I am in 5th gear and going 60mph the rpms are at 4000. I am wondering if this is normal or if the rims are throwing it off. I will post pics soon.

I would have it checked out that's not right.

And its not because of the bigger wheels.
