Avant Garde Wheels - Good Company? Good Quality?
When it snows I will. It's 70 in Minnesota and the leaves are changing. No snow tires yet.
I test fit so I would have had time to send them back and get new ones before the flakes fly.
Super happy

I've had a good experience with these wheels. I use a set for my summers and keep the OEM for winters. Bought them from Pyspeed. Here's a photos: Audi Picture by R_A8 | 3293930 | AudiWorld.com
One thing to be aware of is center cap fit when trying to use the Audi logo caps. Audi OEM caps fall right out of mine, but the cheap replica caps from China that are available on eBay, fit snuggly...

I was told by AG that the only one they have that will clear in a 19" size was the M621. Not my taste.
The owner apparently has an S7 and has tried them all.

Just installed
I just installed the AG wheels and LM-25 Blizzaks.
Below is a picture - in the raised position. I will get another one outside once it stops raining.
FYI -
The Black Optics '16 20" Wheels and tires weight 56.1lbs each
The AG 20" wheels and tires weigh 61 lbs. Hopefully that corresponds to strength for the potholes that show up every winter and spring.
I weighed them on a bathroom scale.

Stillwater...are those Blizzak LM-32's? I'm backing into a weigh for the AG's you have. My calculation is at 33 lbs per wheel if I am guessing those are LM-32's in a 20 inch.
Thank you.
Edit: I re-read your post and see they are LM-25's...are the 25's run flats?
Thanks.
