I have a 2019 Prestige with the 21" wheels (the bigger ones, I think they are 21's). We got a second 2021 Premium with the smaller wheels (20's? 19's? I can't remember).
I was surprised that the 2021 feels noticeably quicker and seems to handle better. Maybe there were other changes, but I attributed it to the smaller wheels. I think it gets slightly better range as well, but that's hard to say for sure, as it has a different driver and way different route profile.
The big wheel version I drive still feels plenty quick and handles nicely, so not saying don't do it. Just know there may be a bit of a trade off. Though maybe your aftermarket wheels will be lighter than the Audi ones...
Just FWIW.
