Can anyone discuss the "new" wheel choices (if any) for the US 2012 Q5 order folks???
I ordered a Q5, Monsoon Gray Metalic, Prestige, this past weekend. Since there is no "brochure" to order from, I went with "good faith" on wheel selection hoping to see pictures of a selection before too long. I like 8 spoke and more.
Any help out there in Audiworld???

I believe the only change to this MY are the 20" titanium rims.. They match the 20" rims currently on the MY 2011's S-Line package except a darker color... I've yet to find a picture of these.

They have changed the S-Line rims for 2012. Not only the titanium on th eS-Line Plus, but they changed the whole design to a simpler 5-spokes.

With the brake dust, Audi should not go with more than 5 or 7 spokes

See picture of new S-Line rims here: http://www.audiforum.ca/q5-q7/65840-...ms-2012-a.html

I for one hope this is not true. I'm a big fan of the current S-line wheel and it was a key factor in my ordering the full s-line package. Maybe its country specific - the link above is to a Canadian site.

Has anyone seen info on this besides the link above?

the 20" Titanium are the same as my Attached Photo of them on the Q7. Just the Q7 has them in 21's vs. 20's on the Q5. Hopefully my car will be finally built next month, I have the same wheels on order.

The wheels have been offered in Europe for over a year as an option. I think in the US they are being offered with that S-Line Plus package that comes with the Black Styling Package.

I found a used Q5 with the Titanium wheels finally.

Those are the wheels I wish I could get. I sure hope the dealer has some of them lying around, if I cannot get them on my order, Prestige without the S package (aluminum trim, 20 inch summer tires/rims, etc). The reason I did not get that package was it removes wood trim on the interior. I will never understand who makes these "decisions" to control selections back at Audi.
Oh Well

Over here everything is an option no package deals, which in turn makes the Q5 20k more expensive and a 6 month wait to get. But oh well at least you get to what you want in the end.
