Arent these the orig 20"
The wheels in the OP's video are the basic 20"s. The ones in the pic you have seem to be a similar design but dished (I original wrote that they looked like 21s but the tyres are ZR20s!). They seem to be most like the "PQN" wheel option on the current Audi Q7 but the ends where the spoke hits the rim have angled fillers rather than straight. Maybe it's a special one off for early press prototype? cars..?

There's a video of the car with those wheels here: (presume pic taken at the same time)

They look quite good really and I prefer them to the current "flat" 20"s.

EDIT:

It looks like the "Flat faced" wheel is a Winter version and the dished one the "Standard" RS6 wheel (Sorry Bjorn!). (See later in the thread)

Hi again. I would be very grateful if i knew from where you had information that the wheels in the threadstarters video was original. The audi config does not say much im a fraid, not supergood Graphics there. Thing is that ive ordered the car with 20" and i assumed that id get the same wheels that the car i drove from the Picture, cant understand why theyd put these on otherwise..

Hi Bjorn. I'm going on the fact that the "flat faced" wheels are shown on the UK Audi configurator, page 55 of the UK brochure on a car shot and in a number of real world shots like these:

However! this picture below is of the wheels in your pic!

I am now rather confused! There seem to be 2 types of almost the same wheel. The flat faced one and the dished version.

I think Bjorn is right, the flat faced wheels are the winter option. The dish type wheels I think are the "standard ones". Take a look at this used one and I think you will see.

He could well be although if you look on the UK configurator:

http://configurator.audi.co.uk/controll ... nt=accx-uk

They look like the flat version.. but the configurator could be wrong of course.

EDIT:

Actually I think you and Bjorn are right. Shots that show the wheel and tyre of the "flat faced" wheel show what look to be rather skinny tyres for an RS6 so they must be Winter wheels. So I suppose the UK Configurator has the wrong looking default wheel.

Ive put my dealer on it.
Do you guys find the dished ones to be pricewortthy, they cost ca 1290€ each (not incl tires)
Could in that case use the flat ones as wintersetup.
But my dealer initally said it should be the dishy ones 20 orig.
