The offset doesn't have anything to do with if the wheels will bolt on or not. You just need a right offset so you won't rub. A lower offset means the wheels will be farther out, reducing the chance of rubbing and also giving a wider stance look that most people like. People buy spacers to achieve a better offset. Tommygunns is saying that the wheels you get for your A4 may not fit over the S4 brakes, which is true. Take that into consideration when buying whatever set you end up getting.

I don't really see why you feel the need to have a fast car. 18x8 ET35 would be better.

These threads should help you choose wheels and measurements. Along with the AF wheel and suspension thread.
Keep in mind depending on what tires you get, you may need to roll your fender liners so you don't rub. So be careful on picking tires. I wouldn't go over 225.

^ Why? I run 245/40 on my 8.5" HRE's with no rub. I dont like slammed vehicles so I kept the stock S4 suspension but its low enough for me. And I know the whole selling car while modding thing cuz I've been selling my car since June and yet I've thrown $8k in the last 2 months. Good thing they can all be swapped to my next purchase. Its all part of being an impatient 18 year old, but my parents dont gimme crap since I pay them rent. Doesnt look bad w/ the reps, VMR?

I vote for these. I'm thinking that might be on one of my cars someday.
