hi everyone, does anyone have an RS5 or S5 with the factory 5 spoke wheels in black? I have black R8 replicas for the winter and I love that it gives the car a meaner look. I'm thinking of having my silver/grey 5 spoke's painted matt black or possibly a glossy finish to match the black optics pkg.
Any pics and/or your experience having the wheels painted would be appreciated. Thx

I saw this Rs5 with the black wheels online yesterday:

I saw a 2015 RS5 with matte black wheels and red striping at my dealer. I took a good look at the wheels and think the red stripe doesn't look quite right and the matte black looks and feels like it will deteriorate and discolor over time. I might be wrong about that but decided I just didn't like them.

Just me, but not a fan of matte black wheels. Painted black wheels look good on some cars, but not many. But then you can see from my sig, I'm pretty traditional.

my 2015 RS5 with factory 20" wheel package with red wheel trim and brake calipers.

I wish those had been available in 2013.

that looks sharp, well done.

I too, have the RS5 in Daytona Grey with Black Optic Package and Black Wheels with Red Striping. The color sets the car off well and are easy to keep clean. The sport exhaust is also black, so the theme is continued.

that looks fantastic!

Talking about Blk wheels I need help to make a decision!
I got some RS7 20" wheels 2 weeks ago and personally find the Black Rotor would look better on my car. Like the RS7 wheels but think they look better on a 4 doors. I saw the Blk Rotors after I had ordered the other ones and the Black Rotor where also more $$$ lol
However I found someone that's ready to sell me a set (Blk/Lt Grey lip).
What do you guys think would look best?
My current wheels or the Blk Rotor like in the picture attached.
