Default Need wheel information for RS7 performance

I need to purchase another set of wheels for my winter tires. Can someone tell me the offset I need for a 2016 RS7 performance wheel.
Thanks in advance,

Did you get winter wheels/tires yet? I just ordered some for my RS7 Performance. I found it hard to know what offset to look for (like you ask in your question above), and there were not many size options to choose from. I went with the 20 inch FlowForm FF15 wheels which were confirmed to fit the RS7 Performance ceramic brakes. But this required getting the 20x10.5 inch wheel which is a little wide for winter wheels. The 20x9 in that same wheel would have required a spacer and I didn't want to use spacers.

For tires, I wanted to order the Pirelli Sottozero 3 winter tires but they are not available in the 275/35/20 size. Not sure why not? So I went with the Sottozero Serie II winter tires.

Will know in 3-4 months how they work :-)

Homer,
I called my dealer to get a quote. Have not heard back from them. I did not want to take a chance and get the wrong wheels. I wish I would of bought a set while i was in Germany.
