<center><img src="http://img462.imageshack.us/img462/4334/dsc00416du9.png"></center><p>Yes, they are 20's, this is a new wheel that was recently brought to market, they are MRR HR-3 20x8.5 front and 20x9.5 rear. I know that one is not supposed to install staggered size wheels on quattro cars, but before I bought the wheels I read an interesting article on vwvortex.com and there was an S8 with a staggered set of BBS's, basically the article said that as long as all four wheels and tires are the same rolling diameter it should be fine.
front tires are 245-35-20 and rears are 285/30/20. By the way the car was lowered with H&amp;R coilovers.
