Hi guys,Just asking for your thoughts on which style wheels would look best on my 2016 A8L?Both sets are 19”!I also have a set of 20,s but not sure if they would look good on the car?Thoughts?

The triangular apertures on the top ones would be a PITA to clean so I would get the bottom ones if it was me.  I have 21" and they are too hard and crashy so looking for 18" if anyone has a set to sell.

Hello Clarke,

I take it you are aware that it’s not all about looking good, and you have to ensure that whichever diameter one you choose, it’s tyres must match the accepted Audi alternatives in terms of profiles etc. to ensure the rolling diameter remains the same. In effect - the larger the wheel diameter, the lower the profile will have to be. 
As Snappy has pointed out - low profiles = harsher ride, and I would have thought the A8 ride would have been comfort biased. 
Kind regards,

Gareth.

Thanks Gareth,I,m trying to go for a good look along with a comfortable ride,I fitted the 20,s with a 40 profile and it drives very well on them!I understand the rolling diameter will not be quite the same but should that be of concern?Clarky!
