Default New Summer wheels

I just changed out the Blizzaks for my Summer tires and decided to change wheels. Went for the ACE Aspire HyperBlack. 19x8.5 ET25.

looks like the Audi 10spoke but with the black wheel well. is it gloss or matte black? any idea what each wheel weighs compared to OE wheels?
other angle pics would be nice to see, too

Here are some other photos of the ACE Aspire wheels. I liked these because they look really similar to the A8 wheels. They're machined on the face, and hyperblack on the sides of the spokes - pretty shiny. Not as shiny as chrome, but shinier than hyper silver. ACE also has a Black Chrome and Matte Grey. The insides of the wheels are more of a charcoal. I bought center caps on eBay for $15.00 with the Audi rings on them. I don't know about the weight, although the factory wheels with the snow tires felt heavier when I changed them. Also, they list ET35 as the proper fitment for A7's, but that offset hits the front brakes. They replaced all the wheels with a +25 offset that fit perfectly.

thanks for all the info. I think the color combo is ideal. The silver really shines, but as you indicated not tacky chrome.
