    Audi a4 s-line w/19's?

    Sorry about this question. I have a b6 and love my car, but am thinking about getting a new one if I like the new design. I haven't been that thrilled until I saw a new A4 s-line with factory gunmetal 19's. This was a loaded A4 and super nice. I just went on the Audi USA site and tried to build an A4 with 19s and couldn't. Why not? Here is an example of the car, but I want it in silver or darker gray. What are these wheels?

    Those are the 5-Arm Rotor wheels from the Black Optics package.

    I've heard some people say that the package is no longer offered, and I've heard others say that you have to build the package through a dealer build. All I know is that that package hasn't been available to configure online in a while.

    Audi a4 s-line w/19's?

    From the dealer I believe you can order a set of OEM 19s from anther Audi model (those ones are available on the RS5) and have them installed prior to picking up the vehicle. Per Audi regulations they have to sell the car with the wheels on the Monroney sticker, but while you're doing paperwork you can have the other ones installed.

    I just bought my a4 last week.... '14 6MT prestige with black optics package....they are around in '14, but you have to search for them. Mine was the only '14 left like this in the country that was new. I have seen them in the premium plus. As a matter of fact, while looking for mine they said there was a silver premium plus with 6MT and nav plus and black optics available somewhere they could have gotten....

    I have a 2011 A4 with the Titanium package. I had to special order it since no one really had them in stock, and all I wanted was P+ trim and proper 3rd pedal. I can only speak for what I know about the B8.5's, I've never owned a B8.5, so correct me where I'm wrong on those.

    the former Titanium Package, now called Black Optics was discontinued for the 2014 model year due to an alleged vendor problem getting the 19" wheels.

    for the B8's the package had black exterior trim and grill along with the wheels and it had a black headliner and piano black inlay trim. For the B8.5's the black headliner and piano boack trim were no longer part of the package.

    The package is slated to be reintroduced for 2015 in the "Sport Plus" package which, per the order guide, will reinstate the black headliner and the piano black trim.

    Keep in mind that you may not see the package show up on the website builder again, even if it is offered. For the 2011 model year, you either had to know about the package to order it (most dealers didn't know about it) or you had to see the rare one on the lot that already had the package.

    On my 2012 A4 Prestige S-Line 6MT, the 19-inch gunmetal wheels were part of the S-Line Plus package, according to the window sticker. It's like a combination of the Black Optic package and the S-Line package.

    For $1250, it includes the 19-inch 5-arm wheels with summer tires, S line leather /alcantra sport seats, brushed aluminum inlays, black cloth headliner, and black-optic exterior package.

    On the 2014s those were part of the Black Optics package. According to KBB the black optics package stopped being offered back on 2/19/2014.

    Thanks for the clarification. Not going to be an easy find. The grill on the car I saw seemed like it was matted black, not shiny. Does that make sense?

    I believe the center of the grille is a matte black on the Black Optics cars, and the grill surround (the chrome part on a typical A4) is gloss black. I may be wrong though, I blacked mine out myself.

    If you can find a 2014 with Black Optics Package I would grab it, you won't regret it. I love mine since I picked it up last fall.
