Default Summer Wheel Choice Opinions

I put winter tiers on my Q7 S-Line Prestige OEM wheels (21" Titanium) right after taking deliver since winter was upon us.

It's time to switch back to the 21" OEM summer tiers and I want to put them on new wheels - so I have a true winter/summer wheel swap ready to go.

Here are the 21" wheel choices that catch my eye. ... Which would you choose?

my vote goes for 21" oem wheels but if you absolutely must go aftermarket these look pretty good:

Hi and thanks for the opinion. I have still not made a decision. Looking at various Audi options also. The Niche look pretty good. The issue is the 21" wheels, not many options to choose from that I R-E-A-L-L-Y like. Maybe will just need to stop being so picky!

unfortunately 21" is an oddball wheel and tire size. even worse is anything you find in 21 or 22 is going to be a very conservative offset to accommodate the touareg and cayenne crowd.

Default Decision Made

Thanks for all your feedback/opinions. I eventually looked at Niche and TSW. Landed on these...




Brand TSW <br/>Model Nurburgring <br/>Item Weight 33 pounds <br/>Product Dimensions 21 x 21 x 10.5 inches <br/>Item model number 2105NUR555130G71 <br/> Exterior Matte Gunmetal Finish <br/>Manufacturer Part Number 2105NUR555130G71 <br/> Construction 1-piece <br/> Rim Diameter 21 inches <br/> Rim Width 10.5 inches <br/> Bolt Pattern (Number of Holes) 5 <br/> Bolt Pattern (Pitch Circle Diameter) 130 millimeters <br/> Offset 55 millimeters <br/> Backspace 7.8 inches <br/> Bore Diameter 71.50 millimeters <br/>

I could have gone with Audi wheels, but wanted something different. Hope they arrive this week and get installed this weekend. Will post pics after install.
