Default D2 alloys on D3

Here is a question for you.

My potential replacement for the D2 (2004 prefacelift D3) has 19" wheels and tyres. The tyres have only 2-3mm of tread on two of them.

My current D2 has 18" RS6 wheels (18x8 ET42) and the tyres have 5mm at least all round. The tyre size fitted is standard D2 size.

Now can I take the 19 inch wheels off the D3 and swap the 18s on from the D2?

I prefer the 18s over the 19s anyway, so can it be done?
