I don't think so. The 21's are run flat and the cars don't usually carry spares. i may get a spare, but there is always Audi Assist for road service.

I was told that the 20" are run flats but 21" are not. No spare, just a can of goo and roadside assistance

The 20's could also be, I'm not sure since I was focused on the ones on the car I'm getting. I'm pretty sure there isn't a spare, but there is a can of goo, air compressor, and roadside assistance. I've gotten to that point in life that if there is a flat, I'll just make a call since it's part of the cost of the car!

Now that looks miles better than pics that I had previously seen. Can't wait for the QS7!

I concur, these photos are way better than many of the stock Audi promotional photos. Don't know why it looks so bad in those.

Personally I thought the photos made the back half of the roof look abrupt and made the car look shorter than it is.

Agree. While the overall length of the car is 1" shorter than pre 17's, it feels much smaller. You get the same feeling sitting inside (or at least I do, others may not); it doesn't feel like the big beast the other models felt like. I drove a demo 15 before the 17's arrived since I had never done so. I felt like I was driving a bus; admittedly coming from an A7, it would feel that way since the latter is so low. There is also a sense of openness and increased visibility in the car, probably enhanced by the huge glass roof.

So I guess I'll hopefully have an untainted view since I have never been in a Q7. Good luck!

Here you go, Paul; shot of the well underneath the cargo floor. As you can see, there is zero room due to the B&O gear, air pump, goo and some other stuff I have no clue of what it is...hope this helps. More pictures overall to come.
