Default Tire size for 21x10.5 wheel

Hey! Getting a set of 21x10.5 wheels for my A7 Pretige (20" sport package) and I keep getting mixed direction on optimal tire size. Can you Audi World gurus help a brother out?
Thanks!

it even will hit the fenders if you're lowered )))

even 285-30 PSS rubbing on slight drop.

On this pic is 285-30-21 with 25mm drop, it's not driveable, only for photo. Even with slight drop of 10mm it rubs on a sharp turns and speedbups.



The only setup for 21x10,5 ET27 and drop is a stretched tire, 275-30 will be perfect.

My setup is 21x10,5 ET27/275-30-21 Conti Sport 5P
It's a little bit tight but doable.

Also i can add that you shoud measure wideness of the desired tire because it's very vary for each manufacturer. P-Zero wider than PSS, PSS is wider than Conti for example. If you're not sure about will it fit or no, just mount 1 tire, it should be stretched.

I'm in the same boat. What did you go with?
I got a set of AG M510 21x10.5 et27, I'm not lowered and I'm wanting to go with 285/30/21 because of the bigger sidewall, but if need be I'd like to do a mild drop if the look isn't what I want.
