Best wheels for winter
 
I got 21 inch wheels, which means there are no winter or all season tires for the wheel size.
Looks like I'm required to get a set of 20 inch wheels.
So I wonder what disks would look best on the car.
They need to be gray or black to match the car color and titanium packages.

Please share your thoughts.

Any ideas, guys?

There are no good looking 20 in winter tires, I broke down and purchased the Audi Winter tire package

Thank you, LeicaNut.
How do those look? Any link for me to look at them?
I'm actually fine with all seasons all year round as long as I can find good looking 20 inchers.
Mine is darkened daytona gray, so they should be black or titanium color I guess.

ChuckRS4, thank you for the link.
I'm thinking to get all season with 20 inch wheels for all year round so I don't have to change them. I'm afraid cast alloy replicas are not going to hold well all year round...

I'm not giving up just yet, still believe there's gotta be a good option. :)
BBS CI-R looks nice but it's cast and heavy.
20 inch Alloy Technic Mesh is one of the lightest, but nobody seems to offer it anymore.

I posted in audizine about this too. Let's see if anyone responds.

My Winter Setup
 
Here is what I just bought for my 2016 RS7:

Perfect!

I'm thinking about this:
Wheels - Morr FS77 Satin Black Satin Black Need 4 Speed Motorsports
with 285 all season tires. I was advised 285 fits nicely both the wheel and the car.

The wheels seem to be lightweight, spun forged (almost forged) and look somewhat better than stock. The latter is personal of course, but they are at least symmetrical and look the same on the right and left sides unlike the stock.

And I'm planning to sell stock ones and drive the 20's all year round.
If you guys have any opinions please share before I pulled the trigger.

I'm upgrading my RS7 20" wheels to HRE, so I'm selling (cheap) the Mint M130's that are currently on the car. They are rotary forged, and weigh same as the OEM wheels (28 lbs). Should have the HRE's in 2 days.
