Over here in Houston, tx at my aunts dealership and we just got this bad boy in, its only the 3.2 but seriously what a damn nice car. only prob is the wheels are kurbed and she wanted me to source some reasonable aftermarket rims, just wondering what you guys thought would be best in terms of style and size 19's?

I would only go for OEM wheels on something like that, seen some A/S5's with wheels that look like lobster claws towards the rim which are nice. (Not the best description, but on phone so can't source a pic)

I'd go for these... they're the optional S-line wheels and are 19"
They look great.

Those look pretty sweet. Obviously not going for the cheap oversized chrome rims everyone goes for here
What colour would you guys say was best, black?

OEM wheels only, anything else aftermarket will make that car look tacky.

Yes I'm a cretin, I'd put money on the demographic of the A5 not wanting to put some ebay £300 coilovers on to look cool on some forum.

Standard rims refurbed in white, I think even the optional upgrades are gash.
