Ive seen people fit 19s. I would say stick to 18s. But that's just my thought.

Default 2nd, 19's just look weird on the B5, but...

it also depends on which 19's you get. What wheels are you looking at?

Default You'll be fine but have had 2 b5 with 19's, still do... go 18, less tire wear and noise, more power

You will feel the strain with the wheels. I also feel its torture to the suspension bits but it may be all in my head. I go thru tires like I go thru tires like I go thru gas

Default I have 19" BBS CH. Lowered w/ neuspeed race springs and Bilstiens, No rubbing at all..

And yes you have to lower the car if you want to put rims that big or else it'll look like ***.
