Default Wheel Options?

I've seen so many different wheels on the S5 but Audi USA's site only shows the two most common - one for the A5 and one for the S5. Does anyone know what wheel options will be available?

Here's a summary of the wheels I've seen photographed...

1. The most commonly photographed S5 wheel...

2. The most commonly photographed A5 wheel...

3. Photo taken at the A5/S5 rollout in Italy...

5. Photo taken in a European Audi showroom...

6. Photo from Fourtitude.com (also seen on Russian S5)

7. Photo from an auto show

Of all these I think I still like #1 the most - which I'm hoping is the standard S5 wheel. Just curious about whether or not any of the others will be offered. I'm also curious to hear everyone's opinions on which is their favorite.

Voting begins.......NOW.

1 by a wide margin, 6 isn't bad either. Some of the others look WAY too small to be on this car.

I prefer #2, because it's different and suites the lines of the A5 realy well.

Legs in #8, #1 and maybe number #6 - The RS 4 Titaniums look the best to me...

Without a doubt #1. Some of the nicest looking rims available.
