Default URGENT! Help on wheels

I want to ask,
will a 2005 Audi A6 4.2L OEM wheels fit on my 1998 A6 2.8L car?
With no problem? offset? rubbing? corning? anything?

The wheels comes with 245/40/18 tires and it's bolt patterns are 5/112 and offset is 48mm.

My current stock wheels are 235/45/17

Please help asap!
Since the deal might be gone soon!
Thanks alot guys!

The v8 and v6 cars use a different offset on the wheels. Probably to eliminate wheel rubs. Youve proably never noticed this before but the v8 a6's are a little wider in front than the v6 models. They have bigger fender flares too. This isnt to say that the wheels wont fit. You might want to make a little cardboard template with the sizes for the 4.2 wheels. That will tell you for sure wheter they will fit or not.

If you get new rims what will you do with yours? Sell them?
