Hopefully taking delivery of my fl saloon in late Dec , first trip I have planned is out to Austria . Where I'm going winter tyres are mandatory. Want to keep the upgraded wheels and tyres that come with the car at home for U.K. Use . Any suggestions as to what wheel would be a good fit as a winter solution just looking for a bog standard alloy that's not from China . Many thanks for suggestions .
 
I believe the offset and wheel sizes are the same for SB and saloon, can't see why they say just SB........
 
Have a look at oponeo.com for wheels and tyres. you can pick up Ronal or MSW (made by OZ) for between £150-£200 each so £600-£800 for the wheels then pick your tyres.

Saloon offset is different ET42 iirc & ET46 if wider 8.5J fronts

Sportback is ET49 F&R or ET53 F (8.5J wider fronts) ET49 Rear
