Default Looking for 21" wheel/tire advice...

We have a 2010 TDI Q7 S-line with adaptive air and 20" rims. The original Eagle LS2 tires are now pretty worn and need replacing. It's also time for me to get a dedicated set of snow rims/tires for trips to Tahoe & Utah. I like the 20" wheels, but want something even sportier.

So, I was going to turn the 20" rims into snows (probably Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7 SUV tires) and get a new 21" package. Questions:

1) Will the 21" wheels make the ride too rough (specifically with the Adaptive Air set to comfort?)

2) I think I might get 21" summer tires. Primary consideration is minimal road noise. Any recommendations?

3) I want 'Audi' looking 21" rims. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
muski
