Well there is a quick photo...will be posting more. They went on yesterday morning. The CH-R works perfect, with the Titanium finish giving just enough contrast while matching almost perfectly to other items like the lower valiance. The Stainless rim protector pulls in the bright work on the car including mirrors, window trim etc. The wheel is 20x9, ET 25.

The tire is the Pilot Super Sport from Michelin in 275/30/20. Pretty excited about these...this is the first set released in the US as this fitment wont be out for a few more months.

Awesome!

Looks outstanding. I wish the Titanium CH-Rs had been on the market when I was shopping for wheels at the beginning of the year.

I had a set of the original CH's on a silver 2001 S4 - one of the best lookin wheels for the price. After looking at your photo's I seriously considering a set for my S5 cabriolet. How would the titainium look on a phantom black car?

Nice ride! I think if you blacked out the chrome window trim and front grill it would set that orange off.

The orange has enough contrast. The color of the wheels is a direct match to the front grill and rear defuser. The wheels has a Stainless Rim protector around the edge , so it ties in the window trim, mirror, exhaust tips, and badges. Trust me, I thought this out No need to black out anything.

I agree, the car looks great the way it is. The blacked out look is highly overrated anyway.
