I've got my eye on a set of AG M510 20x10 for my 2015 A7, what's the best tire size for this setup? Any issues with fitting this size wheel on stock setup (rubbing, etc)?
Thanks!

Lots of good info here: http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/630675-C7-Wheel-Tire-Suspension-Setup-and-Picture-Thread?highlight=wheel+tire+thread
From that post here is my input (happen to have the same wheels/car):

Hey bro, curious if you've had any rubbing in Dynamic mode with those specs. I just ordered the same spec wheel in the M580 with the same size tires (275/35/20) and was told it might rub on a hard bump on the highway or something. Any experience you can share? That looks sweet and the fitment is what Im looking for. I did go with the off black,- black graphite. I've only seen the promo pics and havent seen anyone with one with that finish on here or in person yet, so I hope the gamble pays off and I don't rub lol. Nice ride.

Hey Mel, no rubbing. Also the A7 does not have air suspension so the height doesn't change in dynamic sadly. That is its static height with the sport suspension. The only time I rubbed was making a left through an intersection with a dip in it and the car had 3 good size passengers. Found out it was just the tire rubbing the inner fender hardware. Nothing to worry about! No issues with big dips on the freeway either.
Hope that helps! [cool]

I used G2 Caliper paint. Its actually brush on, worked great for a DIY option.

I was in the same boat, started with the green and figured if I wanted to go darker it would be easy to cover a lighter shade. Go with white!
