Default A4 body looks STUPID with 19's

Despite how much I hate BMWs, THEY can carry 19's well with the larger fender bulges and fender wells

A little too bling bling for my tastes. I'm gonna go with 17's for city driving.

Just think how light they would be in a reasonable size, like 18"!

Default 19's look great, no doubt. The question is, are you willing to do the extra-work?

I hope your daily/common driving routes have good roads 'coz otherwise, you'll end up braking and dodging bumps and holes every so often (not my idea of fun driving). One mistake and you can bend your wheels then you'll have to go through the trouble of repairs. 35 series tires are just to thin and I don't think you can have your 19's on an A4 any other way.

18's are more reasonable if you ask me but then again, I've bent 18's before with 40 series tires on what I thought were "good roads".
