Question Will this fit!?

Hey, I know this probably should go under exterior, but I was hoping the B5 community would divulge more info. I really like these rims painted a matte black (which I can probably do myself), so I was wondering if they'll fit on my 1998 A4 with Brembo caliper upgrades. The caliper fits under the stock 15"x7" 8 spokes.

Here's the wheel: http://www.finishlinewheels.com/AUDI...4/A-58749U20N/


Also, does anyone have some they're willing to part with or know of a good, cheaper site? I'm okay with slightly used/worn because I'm gonna paint them.

if you can use 15" wheels on those callipers with no problem, i would assume larger 17" wheels would be fine as well. 17" wheels fit over just about all big brake upgrades.

A4 96-08 all use the same bolt pattern. Depending on the model of the wheel, you might need wheel spacers to prevent rubbing the caliper due to a different offset. Those wheels are B6 A4 though, so you should be fine. Look for used sets on the forums and Craigslist.
