New wheels

OK, these aren't dramatically different from the stock 5-spoke 18's but the shaved edges of the spokes gives it a sportier look IMO and distinguishes it from any other A8's nearby. Pics below.

Are they the RS6 Replicas? What size? Are D2 & D3 wheels and tires interchangeable?

I really like 'em!

Do you have the tire pressure monitoring option?

if so, were the sensors interchangeable with the new wheels?

TIA

Good luck with the new wheels!
