Default Anyone know what wheels these are?

Anyone know what wheels these are? Came across this pic by accident on the web. Looks like possibly from a European dealer. Not a US option that I am aware of and closest I could find is from an R8 or maybe A6?. I really like um on this Q7!

Looks like the 20" 10 Y spoke wheel option on the TTS. I don't know the wheel widths between the 2 cars but the Q7 has a 285/45 tire and the TTS has a 255/30 tire.

I don't know if it would be a simple tire change or if Audi makes the wheel in different widths.

They're optional wheels on the Q7 (outside of U.S.) - on the Audi.de configurator, they're described as:

Cast aluminum wheels Audi Sport in 10-Y-spoke design, size 9 J x 20 with tires 285/45 R 20

Yes that is the optional Audi Sport "Y-spoke Design" wheels 20" x 9" ET33, available only in German, Chinese, Dutch, and other markets, but not US and Canada.

Sadly, the better looking Q7 wheels are not available in our market... yet.

Thanks everyone for the replies. Hmm..thats too bad. Still would fit a US Q7 though right? I do go to Denmark twice a year for business. Might have to see if I could pick up a set :-)

The U.S stock 19" and 20" rims are horrible. Someone in design should be fired over it. They should have made the 21" style option available in 19 and 20"

"Horrible" is a bit harsh IMO. The 20" stockers look great to some but not to others, just like the Q7 looks great to us but others think it's ugly. I like the 20" stockers, but yes I do like my 21" stockers more. And because wheel design is very much subjective and a matter personal preference, what's really a shame is that Audi is not offering our market with MORE 20" and 21" wheel options like they already do in China, Europe, and some other markets.

Yeah..horrible is a bit harsh. Sorry but one style rim choice is the equivalent of giving only one paint or interior color.
Granted I don't need ten choices but one or two more would be nice. Come on Audi, your not Hyundai, people who buy $50k+ car expect choices to personalize.

Wow, these look awesome.

I have a black 2017 on order with the 21" wheels/summer tires. I'll be building a winter set with Nokian Hakkas; I think I know what style wheels I'm getting. Hopefully some quality aftermarket brands offer this design.
