Debating between these two (very similar) wheels:

http://www.stancewheels.com/wheels/rotary-flow/sf03-brush-face-silver

http://www.z-performance.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=196

I was thinking 20x10? Is that size too wide for the S6? I had similar setup on my S4 and had some rub? Should I do 20x9 or 20x9.5? Any fitment guidance. Thoughts on wheels?

Here are the stance wheels on an R8: https://lh4.ggpht.com/-UqIOJZDfpeQ/V56359SdlqI/AAAAAAB09M4/WnShnbgl8nI/w560/socialfeed.info-this-sf03-silver-brushed-face-from-stance-wheels-is-dynamite.jpg

And here are the Z-Performance on an Audi RS6 (but in bronze, I would do the silver): http://www.z-performance.co.uk/859-tm_thickbox_default/z-performance-alloy-wheel-zp21-deep-concave-flowforged-liquid-bronze-zp21lb.jpg

Here are the ZP2.1 in Silver on a BMW: http://www.z-performance.com/image/data/rims/ZP2.1%20Sparkling%20Silver/BMW-F82-M4-ZP2.1-SS-1_web.gif

20x9.5 ET of around 35 is probably the sweet spot for an S/A6

I was planning to go for the ZP2.1 aswell, but 1 dealer stopped working with Z-Performance as he claimed they had a few paint finish issues apperently.
No 100% proof of the facts and maybe just a retailers story to push me throughward different brand. Atm i didn't wanted to take the risk (since they aren't that cheap).
Additionally, shop i went to didn't had a set so wasn't sure if they would clear the S6 ceramic brake calipers :s.

Z-Performance is a European brand the wheels are designed in Austria.
I had 2 set's on my previous car the last one which was sold had paint issues the owner contacted the factory and they didn't replace them...

Buy them with warranty it's my advice because they're not cheap.
The forged look pretty awesome

To get the perfect fitment, you are going to also have to consider the tire width and brand. Even in the same numerical size, actually tire width and sidewall geometry can vary significantly.

My recommendation is a 265/35/20 Michelin PSS on a 20x9 ET 35 wheel or a 20x9.5 ET38 wheel, if you want a bit more of a stretch.
