Default Ricey? They are just a wheel, there's nothing especially exciting about them

If you think we have bad taste you should consider us nice for not talking about the looks of the crossfire itself, instead of just the wheels. To each his own, but if you're going from a Crossfire to an A5 then there's some hope, but get the Sline wheels instead.

They are a good looking wheel, but I prefer the Audi wheels designed for the A5, on an A5.

the looks of the crossfire?
you're not a BMW 3 series owner are you?
have you owed a crossfire?
if not then you can't really judge the reaction you get from people. i do, and i get a very positive reaction by most people
and i have been complemented by people driving very nice cars.

these wheels might not be the nicest looking ones
but i think they look a lot nicer than all the aftermarket wheels i have seen people on this forum install.

Default They do not fit the profile of this car...There is not enough edge to them

that is the polite response I think people are trying to tell you, besides the crossfire uses a staggered fittment, which will not work correctly on the A5/S5 since its quattro. You need to have the same wheel width front and rear for quattro to be most effective..
