Will genuine RS6 wheels stick out too far on my A8???
One for the wheel guru's
 I desperately need tyres all round (gulp) and I've been offered these cheap, I'm a genuine Audi freak and have made sure these are authentic etc etc, but I don't want to put them on and find out they are poking out of the arches too far. As most know I have the D3 LWB, so will these offset of 35 fit (18inch)   Many thanks Becci

Your 17" wheels are either 40 or 43 et and 8J.
The RS 6 wheels at 19" are et 35 and 9 J. That will mean that if you put a straight edge vertically across the wheel the iner edge of the straight edhe will be approx 17-20mm further out than your current wheel tyre combination. Effectivly what your current wheels would look like if you were running 20mm spacers. The 19 inch 5 spoke (4E0601025AD) for the A/S 8 is 9 JX19H2 ET46 and would sit only 9mm further out than your existing wheels.
