Well, I've decided that I really like these 90Q 5 spoke S4 style wheels, and am considering getting a set, and adding properly sized tires (195/55/15). But someone pointed out that they have a et37 offset, and the stock Coupe GT wheels have a et45 offset. The stock alloys for the CGT are 14" and these are 15". So, will they work properly? Rubbing? Will they look goofy? How will the offset change affect the looks of the wheels on the car? Tucked in deeper, stick out more than stock?

Very much WRONG! The 4x100 bolt pattern went away after the 1984 model year. Starting with the updated styling of the 1985 Coupe GT, they were 4x108. And the "S4 style" wheels pictured are OE Audi 90 wheels in the same 4x108 pattern. I know this FOR A FACT. All I need to know is whether the decrease in offset will be a problem. Please only post info you know to be right, giving bad info could cost somebody who doesn't know better a lot of $$. I'm not bustin' on ya, just be careful...
