Default Ace Rims: Aspire Concave Mesh7? 19"vs20"

Anyone have or seen these on the A6 2012+?

Looking at Aspire silver machine or black chrome on white prestige.

Anyone see these? I have sport package 19" and like the ride. I had 20" on my pasy M35 and it was rough and loud. I tried 18" and they looked small and switched to 20"

Now I am at 19" the stock rims seem to fit the A6 well. My concerm after spend $1500 for rims that I will be wondering will they look puny at 19" ?

will 20" kill the ride and noise?

IMHO 20's are terrible ride, stick with 19.

I agree on the 20" Curious if that 1" is very noticable on the A6 do rims look tiny. 19 now look ok but aftermarket ones that deeper rim/look might look smaller

I do like the ACE Aspire or the Mesh 7








ACE MESH 7

I have the 19" Ace Aspire (machined) on my A7. Be careful about the offset if you get these. I ordered mine through Discount Tire and they recommended the 32 or 35mm offset. When they put them on, the inside of the spokes hit the center bolt on the front brake caliper cover. They re-ordered 25mm offset and those worked perfectly. That also pushes the wheel out and fills the wheel well a little better. I really like the look. Ace makes a Concave wheel that's sharp also.

Those look awesome, I went with Mesh style on previous car, TSW snetterton, when i got them they looked plain jane and too busy not enough space. I went with Lexani CCV-20 with machine face and black.

The color set it off. That is my concern with these style all silver. I like the machin elook of the mesh possibly with black.

Do these stand out in person immediately and not look like they are factory? They are similar in design to other rims on lexus/infiniti?

I think they stand out nicely. Very classy, but not obvious they're not factory wheels. I had Audi center caps on last summer, but changed to the ACE center caps this summer. The hyper black machined is a good look. Much more shine than the factory wheels, but not as gaudy as chrome.

What finish are yours? Are those 19"? I have 19" now and will stay 19, my other concern with multispoke = the bigger the better. With mesh/less psoke they can appear bigger with more space
