Hi there have a4 b5 avant and really want to put some 17inch Porsche twist on options anyone thanks
 
Personally not a fan of the Porsche twist's but it's all personal choice, I'm not sure what the offset is on these though. Definitely need to check, bare in mind you will need some 5x112 to 5x130 adapters which will space the wheels out even more. I know they come in a 7.5 and an 8.5 wide not sure if there are any other sizes.

i think i've seen folk do it by getting four front wheels. The porsche runs a fairly high offset so you get away with the adaptor/spacer thickness.

Sportec mono's for me all day long. Look spot on on a B5. Some say "the holy grail".

I've just taken that on my phone but it's through the window as it's raining, they are the earlier more rounded twists rather than the later flatter style as posted above.
They are front wheels from a Boxster 7.5" x 18" ET50 with 20mm adapters so as fitted the wheels are ET30 and clear 18Z calipers with about 2-3mm to spare.
