I think i have seen some german tuners, who has put 21 and/or 22" on the q7 but not bigger as writen, but it's fine with me it looks great, some 20" BBS LM on a black Q7:love:

wonder what happens when you get stock 20" and you would want to use 18" winter ....

Good question...:eye: :vhmmm: I think it wouldn't be a problem as the ones who get 18"s (maybe) have a less beefy set up than the cars that come factory with 20"s (the 20's will have a heavier wheel/tire combo, so maybe heavier duty suspension???).

I still think this is just hype until Audi announces formally otherwise...

Ben,

If you really want the 24" alloys give Billy Idol a ring he and his saw did a great job on the Lambo, I am sure he would be up for it.:hahahehe:

Remember to take some photos for the rest of us.:0:

No joking a side. In the UK you can order the S-line with 21" versions of the RS4 rim upgrade costing £750, I can't believe the US cars would be different apart from the fact you lot drive on the wrong side of the road.

:D

I like the way the UK 21"s look but am plenty happy with the 20" S Lines for the US. Remember, I actually plan on doing occassional off road and snowy mountain driving, so no rap video stuff for this kid.;) :D When the Mrs' Q7 finally arrives, I'll post pics.

Ben,

On the test drive that I had in one, the saleman told me it will go anywhere a Land Rover will, so I really tested it to the full and we did a little off-roading, yes we mounted a kerb, all 8" of it, just made it. So you will have no problem in the snow, just go for it. :vhmmm:



But remember to take some hot soup just in case you get stuck.:0:

Leadfoot, there is a difference between Audi and Land Rover - with Audi you do not need another one in garage for spare parts ......:applause:

Gig,

Yes I know, but I always like to get a dig at BMW when ever possible. Anyway that reminds me, after owning the the company with the best off-road 4 wheel drive system, all they could come up with was X-Drive, sad isn't it.:doh:

This will bring up the old arguement between Quattro and X-drive, and to tell the true who cares.

All these cars will ever see of off-road are the odd grass bank at the side of a lane, when two cars can't pass side by side.
