    B8.5 Allroad Content! Lowered riding on 20" RS5 Black Optic Wheels

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Realized I hadn't posted pics of the Allroad since mounting take-off RS5 wheels on it. I didn't think I would make the jump to 20's from my 19" S5 Rotors I ran last year but I've been pleasantly surprised with the ride (likely due to the beefier tires). The look is different, I like to switch it up often and was honestly worried I wouldn't like it. I actually do like it more than expected, although I feel like S5 Rotors are nearly the perfect wheel for the car. I'll say the RS5 wheels are growing on me though.
    I've had the car since Jan 2019, it was lightly but well modded from the prior owner.

    I have the same year AR. same color, similar mods (except still on stock suspension), and same optional equipment - I just opted for different wheels, 20" S7 Black Optics with 265/35ZR20s:

    ^^ very nice!

    These are a different look for sure, I kind of like it. Rotors are a solid choice on any Audi, I’ve had multiple sets was just ready for something different. I do love the way the car feels on 275s

    I’ve been looking for some rs6 wheels like that they look good on the allroad. 275’s pull a little bit but I think they fit this car really well. Installing some a4 suspension this week that’ll shrink the massive wheel gap a little. Running 19s now but 20s look so good

    I was looking at allroads a while ago, and noticed that most don't come with body-color fender trim and side blades.

    Is that an easy thing to find / add? The vehicle would look much better without the matte plastic trim imo.

    I think what your looking for is an Avant then.

    Body color painted lowers is a $1K option offered on ARs from 2013 and up.

    I've had no 'pull' on the 275s so far!

    Black was one of the few colors I liked in the 'two tone' or without body matched lowers.

    Had some time to do a proper shoot (unedited pics)!










    Perfect fitment IMO (with 275s - no rubbing):
