I took off the 18" that came with my car & replaced with these.
I believe wheels are close to A7 & A8 wheels and are replicas.
They are 20" with Falken FK452 summer tires size 255/35-20.
I feel $1570 delivered to my door is a great deal compared to original wheels.
First photo 18" wheels & tires.

They are nice looking wheels, but I put up with large diameter wheels and Z rated tires on my Corvette. Do not want nor need anything like that on an A6, I'd rather have a much better ride and tire life, way less noise and somewhat less handling. Not to mention not having to buy winter tires.
Glad you like the package

But will be hard to take care of.
Also I think you mounted the tires wrong. The tread is supposed to be pointing in the other direction in that front wheel I think. With aqua tread tires.

I need better readers tires do say "Rotation" and arrow for right & left side.
I have 2 tires on wrong & gonna correct it now. Wonder if I messed up the tires somehow?
Rears are correct just the fronts need to be switched.
