What wheels look good on an Audi A6 C5? Finishes colour-by-colour
Same car, same fitment, very different results depending on the wheel colour. The Audi A6 C5 runs 5×112 PCD, 57.1mm bore, and every wheel here is confirmed to fit that spec. The factory offered it in Cerise Metallic, Brillantschwarz, Amethystgrau Pearl, Indigo Metallic among others: one finish call per paint below. Crumpsall Alloys fit them at our Manchester workshop, free fitting available.
Tornado Red paint: which wheels?
For an Audi A6 C5 in Tornado Red the call is gloss black, red paint and gloss black wheels is the hot-hatch look and it has never gone out of fashion, or failing that silver, understated and period-correct: lets the red do the talking.
Brillantblau paint: which wheels?
For an Audi A6 C5 in Brillantblau the call is silver, silver keeps a blue car clean and classic: never dates, lets the paint be the star, or failing that gunmetal, gunmetal on blue is the current look, darker than silver but still cool-toned so it sits with the paint.
Indigo Metallic paint: which wheels?
For an Audi A6 C5 in Indigo Metallic the call is gunmetal, gunmetal goes with everything, which is why it is the finish we sell most of, or failing that gloss black, gloss black is the universal contrast wheel; there are very few colours it does not suit.
Amethystgrau Pearl paint: which wheels?
For an Audi A6 C5 in Amethystgrau Pearl the call is gloss black, gloss black is what most grey cars are missing; it frames the arches and makes the paint look lighter, or failing that gunmetal, gunmetal on grey is the subtle upgrade, a step darker than the paint so the wheel still reads.
Brillantschwarz paint: which wheels?
For an Audi A6 C5 in Brillantschwarz the call is gloss black, gloss black on black is the stealth build; the wheel design shows in the light and disappears in the shade, or failing that silver, the classic move: silver lets the wheel design actually show against the dark paint.
Cerise Metallic paint: which wheels?
For an Audi A6 C5 in Cerise Metallic the call is gunmetal, gunmetal goes with everything, which is why it is the finish we sell most of, or failing that gloss black, gloss black is the universal contrast wheel; there are very few colours it does not suit.
