Default Are these wheels 20" or 21"

the website says 20" but it looks bigger to me. the tires look to be in the 45 range. can you guys help me figure out what size it is? thanks!

Those do look like they're 20", Niche Targa. Niche's website doesn't show them available in the 21" size. Most likely 275/45/20, just by zooming in closer I can barely read 275 on the sidewall. Looks nice with the deep concave face, 20x10.5 is going to give you the deepest concave face possible if you go with the custom cut option and the right offset.

They "look" visually closer to a 45 aspect ratio, and there's still plenty of wheel well arch gap (or it's got air susp and is topped out), so I'd guess these are 20"s. For someone that complains about Q7 ride quality as much as you do (Koni set up or not), I'm surprised you would consider a really low profile sidewall. I think you know how sidewall effects ride, even if only subtly....

Ride may not be ideal but sure looks slick.

i currently have 20" oem setup on mine 275/45/20. i'm just looking for a new set of 20" rims now that i'm going to keep my Q7 thanks to the koni fsd. i was trying to avoid every cracks and holes before but now i'm actually out looking for them every time i'm on the road like it's payback time. they are really soft almost too soft.
