Default No two-tone wheels?

In all of the press releases, the 5 spoke segmented wheels are two toned.
However, all of the photos from the dealerships of that wheel are not two toned. Is the two-tone going to be an option?



two-tone

It is a shame isn't it? I just ordered a Prestige and the wheels are ok as is, much nicer in the two tone. Audi will likely offer more options as the years roll.

They're not the same. In the first image, you can see there's a slight darker color in the inner spoke.
Do you know if Audi will offer this as an option? The single tone wheels look horrible

Interesting ... the two tone wheels pictured at top are available in Canada as part of the S-Line package. We don't have the option for the 20" monotones as shown in the second picture.

I think you misread Gas Hed's post. He said "It is a shame isn't it?" Not that they are THE SAME.
BTW, 2 tone wheels are much nicer.

Mine look like the 2nd photo. I'm actually thinking about having the wheels re-painted at some point. Maybe not 2-toned, but a darker grey.

I prefer the one tone look. But neither one would be my first choice for a 20" wheel. Would prefer more like a BBS sports wheel. They are both too conservative for my taste, but oh well.
