we tested on the audi track
I think you test the Q7 most out of all of the 7 seater
on mud and track

if I get the rim then yes there is no point in comments like you because you already have the rims install unless you planning changing them again
this is why I comment so I get the best out of them and do more home work before I buy

getting the car from relative's shop, so if there is problem I will just blackface him forever.

no plan for mod at the moment, might do it after I get bored with it. right now I rather have it as a 996 than a 997 fake.

996 - 997 turbo conversion?

on the road, even the estima feels better than the q7, no match for x5 and cayenne in terms of handling.

The 19" would be somewhat too much for my 530i as I found it's slightly under power with this setup. I think the tyres at the rear (275/30R19, but that's the recommendated size for the rear wheels) is too wide. This setup is completely good on my ex-E46 M3, perhaps it would be great if my 530i has 5kg/m more torque... Or I am a bit too much demanding ...
