Need help deciding on wheels/tires for A6...

I'm down to the following choices for either my 100CS or A6 (same style.. I might put the A6 wheels on the 100CS and new wheels on the A6) ...

<img src="http://members.theglobe.com/muhammadc/A6_100/CIFAA4LARGE.JPG">
Audi 5-spoke 16"

<img src="http://members.theglobe.com/muhammadc/A6_100/CIFAS6LARGE.JPG">
S6 6-spoke avus replica 16"

<img src="http://members.theglobe.com/muhammadc/A6_100/CIFATTLARGE.JPG">
TT 6-spoke avus replica 16"

<img src="http://members.theglobe.com/muhammadc/A6_100/MM_R5.GIF">
Mille Miglia R5 16"

All would be w/Dunlop SP Sport 8000 225/50/16 unless others might be better...

And they would go on this car:

Or like I said I might put the new wheels on the 100CS... still thinking.

I would consider 17" but all of these are available in 16" max... except if I went with a 17" 5-spoke replica, but those are backordered. Right now I am leaning towards the S6 avus or MM R5... with the S6 avus leading by a tad.

So how about some suggestions?

TIA...<p>>>Muhammad

All are nice but I'm partial to either of the 5-spoke designs.

I'm with you. I've got the S6 on my 2.7T and I get a lot of compliments.

Re: Need help deciding on wheels/tires for A6...

I'd go with either of the 5-spoke wheels. But, if you want a 6-spoke, then the TT 6-spoke will look better than the Avus. Why? The TT version is more rugged and sporty looking!
