Does anyone know if an A7 has 20" wheels, does it automatically have the sports package?

Drove the A7 today with the 20" wheels and didn't like the ride as much as a previous A6 I drove. Lots of tire noise on the highway, and I drive 30 miles each way to work on the highway. The ride was also pretty firm, much more that the A6 I previously drove. Looking online most of the used A7's I saw had the 20" wheels, and I assume the sports package.

Anyone drove both setups and can tell the difference? I absolutely love the look of the A7 more than the A6, but how likely would it be to find a used A7 without the 20" wheels and sports package?

If the 20" wheels came from the factory it does have the sport suspension.

My '12 has the sports package and the suspension has three settings. The dynamic setting is very stiff. We leave it in the auto setting.

Thanks. Anyone know the best place to look online for CPO Audis? My local Audi dealer as really poor inventory and I would like to elsewhere without constantly changing the zip. Doesn't seem the "radius" function works on that website.

We don't have that option in the US unless we step up to the S.

It is possible to get the 20'' 10-parallel spoke wheels without getting the sport package. For model years 2012-2014, it was a standalone option (PRB in '12-'13, PPT in '14). Beginning with the 2015 model, the sport package is required to get these wheels. So you could find a pre-owned model; visual cues include the non-S-line body, slightly (~10mm) higher ride height, and four-spoke steering wheel.

Another source of misinformation.
I guess the suspension settings on my '12 A7 are just for looks.

Have you tried autotrader.com or car gurus.com? I know you can search CPO. On autotrader. I believe that you can on car gurus too.

I have read everything about ordering a 2015 and it was not listed as an option. I can't speak for earlier years. I could have missed it.

There are no suspension settings on the A7. If you look in the Drive Select settings, you'll see three settings: Transmission, Steering, and Seat Belts. I wish it had a Suspension setting like on the S models, but it doesn't.
