Do you know if it is possible to fit 18" wheels for the RS3?

Looked at mine today and there isn't anything about 18" only 19", so little difference there between 8P and 8V.
An interesting thought here: the first 8P RS3 owner that I'm aware of that installed the 8V 8-pot front brake calipers onto his 8P RS3 with 8.1/2" J Rotor wheels claimed that he had fractionally more clearance between caliper and inner wheel rim than with the original 4-pot calipers...
Just sayin. I ain't got an 8V RS3 nor do I want one but it'd be interesting if someone would trial-fit an 18-inch wheel (I have 18-inch wheels on my TT but not the 8V caliper) to check...
I think you can ask any dealer if they have any wheels that you can borrow just to check it? Usually they have loads of different wheels to pick from and especially when you just want to confirm it. I can also confirm that of course offset has big difference how its gonna work or not. My winter wheels with less offset (44 vs 49 mm) than oem are aftermarket RS look alike and works perfectly with 3mm spacers to get the wheel little out to pass calipers, don't know it helps?
Do you Guys not read the thread, or is there a vague hope that the tooth fairy will pop out and make it all good?
