on Avus gunmetal looks good, here is the paint code used for the Plus version rims : 8AU - titan grey
Ex.: 2004 Audi RS6 C5 ABT, Milltek non-resonated, 19" RS4 B7 rims, RNS-E - SOLD
2004 AUdi RS6 C5, SE exhaust, RNS-E, 19' original rims - SOLD
Now :2009 Audi RS6 C6 - stock yet pretty fast
My BBS wheels are gunmetal and it hides the brake dust (although you won't have any- ;0 ). When absolutely clean- I like the Silver contrast better. The Enkei black wheels look good at the track. Obviously- personal preference of color. Orange might be nice.
Enjoy them new wheels you dog!

I'm a big fan of the Meteorite Grey that I had my winter wheels shot with, hides the dust and still has a very good amount of metallic flake. No offense, not at all a fan of Avus Silver, so my opinion here is probably <$.02. All depends on what _you_ want the car to look like
Enjoy those 19's!

My vote is on whatever the stock gunmetal type color was.
Is this the existing color?
2012 Q7 TDI S-Line - 2010 GTI - 2007 A3 3.2 S-Line - 2003 RS6
2001 Honda S2000 - 1977 Honda CBR 750-F2 - 1965 GMC 1500 WideSide
Personally would only run gunmetal on a black, blue, or dark color car. Light color cars with dark wheels look strange to me and if you have a background in design you would well understand my opinion on it. I would stay with the lighter silver as I think it's classier and sportier for the Avus color. The Daytona gray ride would look good with gunmetal. Definately stay away from chrome! I had a set of 19x8.5 Euro 5spokes on the black ride here and liquidated them with near new rubber 2 wks ago to a polish kid who had just bought an A6 4.2 He was all about the bling and happer than a pig in shit to get them.
'02 S6 Avant Silver - Pokey | Carbon Black/Ebony RS6 w/ stuff - darn quick | '03 Daytona Grey/Ebony RS6 w/ more stuff - quicker yet | '91 NSX CDN issue with 6spd & BBSC - quicker yet and then some | '87 Buick GNX OEM clone w/ lots of stuff - quickest hands down
Oh those look very nice!

I painted a set of those exact wheels with what the wheel company around here calls "hypersilver". They powdercoat a black base, then a translucent silver metallic to the desired color tone, then clear coat. Since the car is a black metallic I kept the wheels on the darker side and the result, especially in the sunlight, is terrific.

I just got home.
Stinkin fast as all get out.....APR in my Daytona. Had to go test a few launches.....ahhhhh we are ready for the drags now.
5 spokes on the Avus
^APR does rock it..Crazy was able to get under 4.0 for 0-60 (If I recall it was 3.94) with aggressive launch...;0 Usually it runs in the 4.1 to 4.3 range with 93 pump gas.
I don't think I've ever launched it with Race Gas and 100 mode. I'm pretty sure it would hover around 4.0 with correct launches. For the heavy monster, I'm happy with the performance. If only we had a transmission that could master the torque.
