Got my V5 through today and it shows CO2 at 223g/km even with the 21" wheels.
Seems that the rules on including wheel options effect on CO2 on the emissions has not changed the RS6.
21" wheels and CO2 emissions.

Re: 21" wheels and CO2 emissions.
I checked this before I placed my order. Not sure how Audi UK achieved this as the wheels should have made some sort of difference, and the RS6 is only 2 points below the next threshold. On the S6, the change from 19" wheels to the optional 20" wheels does increase the published CO2 figure.
How did you get your V5? I thought they came in the post after you had taken delivery.

Re: 21" wheels and CO2 emissions.
I've paid the money required, signed all paperwork etc in advance. They must have sorted the registration in advance too I guess.

Re: 21" wheels and CO2 emissions.
Quick q re V5, does it specify on the type box that it is an RS6 Avant? Mine doesn't. Resent it to DVLA as they had made a mistake on the VIN number but they only corrected the VIN number
