I'm torn between 20" Peelers in Gunmetal, or 20" S5 Wheels in Anthracite/Gloss... will be going on a Glacier White C7 Prestige

Probably the Peelers in Gunmetal... The Anthracite Gloss S5s are a little lighter

That's what I wanted to see thanks. Now if only we could find a forum member who has these on his actual car... hmm.

I've emailed Achtuning about fitment on some wheels.

I want to ensure whichever set i order, clears the calipers without spacers. i strongly dislike using any type of spacer

I think i may go the route of the Peelers, since the S5 wheels in 20" show a lot more of you brakes, which will surely be rusted and crappy within a few months of ownership

Paint your brake calipers. I paint my DD calipers with regular Krylon glossy black every spring when I put summer tires on.

Apparently, the Peelers are a dealer option in Germany in 20"
