    Nice Ride!! What size wheels did you get? Do you notice a difference in the ride?

    Thanks!

    The wheels are 20" and the ride is only slightly firmer, but you definitely feel more planted when making turns... just for comparison, Audi does offer a 20" wheel for the Q5 with summer tires :)

    Beautiful Q5 D_Frost. Since you have wheel arches, how thick are your wheel spacers?

    Didn't run spacers... I opted to order a set of wheels from HRE with custom offsets :)

    For reference: 20x9.5 ET15/10

    The new wheels + tires ended up lighter than my stock wheels + tires... didn't get exact weight numbers but can easily tell by picking it up... also helps with unsprung weight ;)
