Default 20" RS5 5-V Spoke Titanium Wheels

I have a '13 S5 Cab on order, would like to find a set of the new wheels from the '13 RS4/RS5. See pic below.

Listed on the UK site as:

20” x 9J ‘5 V spoke’ design Titanium look alloy wheels with 275/30 R20 tyres

Not sure these would fit the S5 and the closest alternative I've found is the Vossen SCV1. Hartmann makes one that is somewhat similar, but not an exact match and it has a partial-chrome finish.

Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Aaron

You can ask your local auto/tire shop where you will be changing the wheels.

The 20'' x 9Js will fit on 275/30 R20s.

But, for the BEST fitment, for the offset, you should stay close to the original STOCK wheel offsets.

If you have to use spacers to adjust the offset, try to keep them less or equal to 15mm.

Since you are changing the wheels and I am assuming, sticking with the stock tires, you may want to look at wider wheels.

I changed mine from the stock 20'' x 9 to 20'' x 10 on my RS5.

I think Ace Convex wheels is similar to what you're looking for.

Thanks for the info guys. Those Ace Covex wheels are pretty sharp with the titanium finish and the price is more palatable. I had not seen those yet. Much appreciated!

Here's a good shot of the R8, these will look great on my Misano S5 cab. I priced these out to $300 for 19" or $375 for 20". Much better than the OEM Audi option. Still debating the sizing, do you have an opinion on these 3 options?

255/35/19x8.5 et25 (Factory size)
or
255/30/20x9 et25 (0.02% difference)
or
275/30/20x10 et35 (-1.77% difference) *+1/4" inch ride height

I'm in San Francisco and work downtown. Potholes are a concern, although I'm pretty good at spotting them. I think option 3 would provide a bit more tire protection, better ride and fill out the lateral wheel gap.

I'm also thinking that I will need to add a 1" drop with the 20" wheels as long as my dealer is ok with springs + my warranty. Spacers are another question I guess...maybe 5-10mm in the back.
