Default 18" 5 spoke wheels???

When I saw the Q5 2.0T at the New York auto show in April it was fitted with 18" 5 spoke wheels. The 2011 literature indicates that the same, standard 10 spoke 18" wheels will be standard on the Q5s. Does anyone know anything about these 18s"? I liked them better then the 10 spokes and I was hoping they might become the new standard wheel.
Thanks

Will this do? Only shows the 10-spoke 18's tho. But here's a link you may have already seen showing the 5-spoke: http://www.audiwg.com/new-inventory/...%2Cyear%20desc

I am still negotiating with local dealers on a new 2.0T. They are not budging that much on lowering the cap cost...

I would get the stock 18"s if they came in the 5 spoke style. I am not a fan of the 10 spoke wheels at all. I have been told there are only a few 2.0T models in my local dealers pipeline with the 19" wheel option and they are not the color combo I prefer.
