I'm considering purchasing a set of Monotec Forged T07 wheels. I love the HRE P47 wheel and these are custom forged and about half the price as the P47. Monotec is a division of Niche Wheels.

Questions are:

-Do you guys think they'll look good on an S6? (I do, but curious as to forum feedback)
-20" or 21"? I'm certain 21" will look great, but I don't want too harsh a ride.
-Width?
-Offset?
-Anyone have experience with Monotec Wheels?

My S6 is Ibis White and I like the look of a brushed silver wheel. I'm going to have the barrels painted black inside so they don't show brake dust where it's hard to reach.

Comments please. I would purchase Audi caps for them, those Monotec caps are hideous.

I like them. I don't have any experience with Monotec and haven't even heard of them until now, but those are nice looking wheels. 20" vs 21" is a personal choice. I don't think you'll notice too much of a ride difference.

You didn't feel much of a difference in harshness going to 21s with your HREs?

I like them and the HRE P47 are my favorites as well but I can't bring myself to spend the cash when I know I will be worried about curbing them every day. This might be a good alternative. I am also wondering about 20 vs 21.

Haven't mounted my HREs yet. Still winter in WI. Bought them this winter so haven't tried them yet. Just going on what others have said. With the air suspension, it helps dissipate some of the roughenss with larger wheels.

Certainly 20s will look great if you're concerned.

I noticed a difference, but I went from 19" to 21".

However, my old S4 with KW V2 coilovers + 255/35/19 Bridgestone RE-11s had a noticeably harsher ride than the S6 is with the HRE lowering module + 265/30/21 Michelin PSS. The air suspension soaks up bumps quite well.
