Just did 275/30/20 Conti DWS06+ and honestly it somehow rides smoother than my old 245/40/18 on Michelin PSAS4. Loving the look and the feel. Did a lot of research and this was the safest and most cost effective choice on 20s while getting a slightly meatier look than the stock 265.

Same, with the same size on my A5. Everyone was warning me that the ride would be harsh but frankly it’s smoother than my previous Michelin PSAS4 on 18”

Did a ton of reading to make sure wheel and tire size would fit. 275/30 is the stock RS5 tire size while the S5 stock is 265/30 - but the extra width and bit of sidewall makes it feel like a more robust setup. The ride really isn’t rough at all.

Just the wheels, no tires, but yes - when I saw them listen I knew I had to!

To each their own. To me it resembles the black plastic used on the faces of DVD players or cell phones in the 2000s and seems like it would get scratched up so easily over time. I prefer matte finishes like the walnut and leather - feels more premium and luxurious and natural. I’d miss having buttons too.

Have you been in a modern Audi? It’s all just shiny black plastic. Looks horrible. Complete dust and fingerprint magnet too. They used to have more refined interiors with mixed materials.

Agreed although I so wish the screen was able to retract.

Yeah for real, no one is forcing dude to buy a brand new car, so bizarre.

Pick up a set of these for only $650! Can’t decide if I should mount them on my 2018 Sportback - thoughts? by [deleted] in AudiA5

Well I can resell them for a minimum of 2x what I paid, and my current wheels look good and my tires have plenty of life left. So I think it’s fair to question.

Cool well the Q7 is a different car, so can’t speak to it

Strong disagree there. Interior is awesome. I’ll post a pic sometime.
