I ordered a Sepang Blue 2015 with black optics package with the black/lunar silver alcantara seats. With the blue exterior I preferred the black optics trim, and I'm in the minority that prefers the new packaged wheels to the rotors. I will be getting some 18" rotor replicas for my winter tire setup though.

I've seen a few real-world pics of delivered S4's with the same Sepang/BO package and it looks great in my opinion, specifically the wheels look better in regular images as compared to the renders on the web.

As you can see the opinions vary. if you like it, great. if you don't, there are other options. Options with the wheels as well.

Love my 2015 S4 With BO Package. The rims look great and in person are RS4 Style just not 20 inches. I hope you are able to see them in person before writing them off.

I'm loving my 2015 with the black optics package as well. The rims worried me a bit on the crappy printout at the dealer, but once they arrived and I saw them in-person, I had no regrets at all.

Might also be less common than other rim styles available for order. But again, they look really good in person.

Well, I can tell you that today I picked up a loaded Ibis 2015 with the black optic package. I was very concerned about the wheels having spent weeks looking at pictures of them on line. It is remarkable as the wheels look much different in person. All of the pictures seemed to suggest this floral look to the wheels. Not true, the wheels look much better and there is no black outline to the spokes which seemed to be the case in pictures. The wheels look great. But, to each their own I guess.

I agree completely. I didn't care for the 19" Titanium V-spoke wheels when viewing them online but in person they look really good. They look completely different than the stock pictures on Audi's website. I got mine with the Sepang blue and the color combination looks great together. I prefer these to the peelers. Like you said, it's a personal opinion. I recommend anyone interested/concerned to go check them out in person.
