interesting. In the interest of testing tires i was going to swap wheels with a bmw as they are 5 stud as well, but set further from the center so would not fit. Volvo seem spaced the same but havent tried them yet.

Well Omega wheels are 110 pcd, volvos are 108 and merc,audis are 112 so they both fit pretty good with wobbly bolts...

Audi centre bore is smaller - you will need to get them re-bored to ?66.1 - I'm sure some one can confirm.

Been thinking of doing similar with some R8 lookalikes. Projex (in Brum if memory serves) will  re-pitch to fit meegas if you buy the wheels from them for 120 notes
Then you dont need wobbly bolts

HTH
