S-line alloys for the new A3 Sportback

[GavConner]

Hi guys

Just looking at the gallery on the Audi site ... https://www.audi.co.uk/new-cars/a3/a3-sportback.html#/gallery

What are the alloys shown in the pictures ?
Will my S-line come with them ?
If not, why can't I seem to see / order them on the configuration thing ?

The description for the standard ones is ... 18" '5-parallel-spoke' design alloy wheels, diamond cut finish with 7.5J 225/40 R18 tyres. Sounds like the ones in the gallery but I've got a feeling they are the old ones ??

Sorry if this has been asked before

The gallery looks like they have shown S3 Standard wheels on the A3 S-Line.

These aren't a choice, best to look at the configurator, the standard A3 S-line ones look like an updated version of the old standard ones.

I have ordered a FL S Line Sportback 2.0 TFSI S Tronic. Happened to check the configurator today and there is a new wheel option for £325 -
18" '5-arm dynamic' design alloy wheels in contrast grey, diamond cut finish with 7.5J 225/40 R18 tyres 325.00 GBP.
I can't see them on another model and the image on the configurator isn't great. I've asked my dealer if the have a picture as I think I may change to the new design.

Arhhh .... ok that makes sense. Configurator has three choices (non of them are the gallery ones)

18" '5-parallel-spoke' design alloy wheels, diamond cut finish with 7.5J 225/40 R18 tyres
Standard

18" '5-arm dynamic' design alloy wheels in contrast grey, diamond cut finish with 7.5J 225/40 R18 tyres
325.00 GBP

18” ‘10-spoke’ design alloy wheels in matt titanium look, diamond cut finish with 7.5J 225/40 R18 tyres
650.00 GBP

Audi - stop teasing me with stuff I can't have

Yes, they remind me of the new Golf GTI Alloys

No - different design that I am presuming is new to Audi. They are on the Audi configuration. Think I'm going to change my order. (And I agree that those wheels on eBay are not great)
