This is my first Audi, and my first winter is ahead of me.
That said I have a plan: if we were in Europe, I'd just go to my Audi dealer and buy their factory winter wheel-set, but sadly it isn't offered here for some reason:
OEM part number: 8T0071497A 8Z8
7,5 J x 17, 112/5, ET: 28 mm
So, I'm about to go with a set of inexpensive 'Ingolstadt' replica wheels, in ET 35, hub bore 66 from a Canadian seller (RTX) on ebay. Look for 'RTX Wheels Ingolstadt, 17x7.5, 5x112 (set of 4 wheels)'
..and I'll be matching the size that goes with the above OEM rim size:
225/50 R17 Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2
