After driving the S5 for a couple of weeks...
After driving my new phantom black S5 for two weeks, I am more in love with the car now that I was before. I am so glad I decided to get this car. The more I look at it, the more I like the design of this car. It rides so smooth it is unreal. After a short time, you really begin to appreciate the interior layout. All of the controls I use regularly are situated right under my hand. After I got used to it, I couldn't see having them positioned any other way. It's perfect. If there was one complaint, it would be that there are no seatbelt adjusters. I would like to be able to adjust the shoulder strap to a more comfortable position depending on how I am sitting.
Anyway... I am not crazy about the factory rims on this car. They aren't bad, but I think the car would look even better with the right rims. I would likely go 20". What do you think about these rims on a black S5?

They kinda remind me of the rims I saw on a red RS4 I saw the other day.

Nice wheels all around. They shouldn't be too heavy with being a multipiece forged wheel. You may also want to look at forgiato's wheels. Very high quality and I just did a set of 22" on a customers 2008 A8L. Very light lighter than stock 18" by far and looked amazing with staggered offset.
