Black Edition S3 with non BE wheels?

[HulkRS3]

As the title says; I've also been offered a good discount on the black edition which is what I was going to go for first before being informed of the likes of carwow and other similar sites. However I don't like the wheels that the Black Edition comes with, is it possible to spec the standard non BE wheels to a BE model?

Cheers

Not that I'm aware of, you have the BE wheels or 19's.

@Sam Millar - ^Agreed

Go for the 19's mate

 

[MattSedg]

the way I saw it, mag ride is a worthwhile option anyways? and obviously lets you get the yummy 19s

 

[RustyTheSnowman]

I asked the dealer when ordering mine last month, no was the answer. I went for the 19" v-spokes in the end.

I really hate the look of both of them but if I had to I'd go for the v-spokes. That being said I really fancied putting it onto the RS6 alloys if they fit?

Yeah, I went for Mag-Ride and 19" V's...

The 19's are a must. 18" were fine on my S Line, I'm not sure why but the standard wheels on the S3 look too small from some angles to me, the 19's are an awesome setup!

The Saloon. Done a quick photoshop with the RS6 alloys. For some reason my configurator will only let me select red paint.. anyone else having this problem?

The configurator is gassed at the minute as I just ordered an S3 Saloon and had to go into the dealer to confirm spec as I couldn't change the colour and the option for S Sports seats including the design pack with the red honeycomb stitching was also missing.

Thanks for clarifying. Was getting to think they had hit a crisis and was only making orders for S3s with red paint for 2017. :|

Got a few thousand litres of red paint they need to shift lol
