Thanks for the clarification!

BO = Black Optics package (black grill, black trim vs chrome, body color side mirrors, 19" black wheels).

From a B8 S5 I saw this morning. I was initially upset that they changed the wheels with the package, but after seeing them in person I think they look pretty killer.

I believe the OP was referring to the 19-inch wheels for the BO pack of the new B9 S4 sold in the US.

The new wheels are a minor iteration of the same design they continue using on several Audi models, primarily with BO packages. They have slightly more edge in a couple places, but the color and design are the same. U.S. and other countries all share the same wheels from Audi.

19" 5-arm-rotor design wheels, matte titanium finish, with 245/35 summer tires.

If there were any B9 S4s with these wheels out, that would be great, but there aren't yet. However the B8 S5 I spotted today and posted has the same wheels. Right now we can only see them on the current S4 order guide with a crappy fuzzy pic that makes the matte finish look darker than reality:



I believe the correct response is, "hey thanks for taking the time to stop and take a picture, then upload it here, to answer a question."

Hmm...are you sure those are the black optic ones for the S4? I'm on the German site and the wheels you are showing are not an option for the S4. They are an option for an S5.

Here's the order guide, see for yourself, but I pasted the same image above. Also, Audi of America packages things independently, which is why the German builds are different on their site. Germans are fortunate that they can order nearly everything separately, a la carte style.

I find it improbable that Audi would call 2 different wheels by the same name: "5-arm-rotor design", especially on the same-titled option package. Maybe that's just me.

They are fairly generic wheels Audi uses across many models, though I do like them. Google the whole term, you will see many examples. Here they are as sold "for an RS3."
