The 20" wheels that came w/my RS6 were just a little big and not wide enough (20x8.5 OZ Ultraleggara). After figuring out that a 2013 RS5 takes virtually the same size wheel it opened up my wheel choices on Tire Rack. I ended up choosing OZ Superturismo LM's 19x9.5 with a 30mm offset. All I needed to adapt them to the car was the 66.6 > 57.1 reducer rings. Ended up with a Sumitomo HTRZIII 275/30/19... fitment is near perfect with no spacers needed (also posted to the definitive wheel guide).

I like it. Are you still on DRC or something else? I've been looking for a summer setup that I can run a little wider tire on.

My Aprilia has forged OZ's. Curious if they are similar quality motorcycle vs car.

Looks quite nice! Hard to balance without going too far, but I think 10-15mm spacers in the rear would bump them out just enough to not get the tunerboi 4x4 look, but still have that "wide stance" that'd complement the rake of slightly higher rear to front...

//Edit - Have fun at Carlisle! Wish I could be there, but duty calls at home :|

Thanks guys! The quality of the wheels is very good and IIRC they are 22lbs which isn't too bad for the price. My suspension is stock for now, before the shocks go I know my lines will blow out (car was sitting outside since 2011 when I bought it a couple months ago) then it's upgrade time.
