Default B7 Rims

I have a B7 2.0t, Fwd. I'm planning on putting rims and tires, but can't decide if I should do 19's or 20's. I have priced out a bunch of wheels, but I'm still undecided. Anyone out there have can give me any advice? It's greatly appreciated.

Sorry, I can't answer your question, but I'm wondering if you have 17" rims currently and if you are going to sell them after you get your new rims and tires? Sorry to ask, but I just found out I have 2 bent rims (thank you Maine roads)... so I'm just curious.

Thank you.

I wasn't going to sell my stocks, because I don't want to have to rebuy them when I decide to trade in the car. Sorry.

Do 19's. I think 18's are good for the B7 but if you wanna go bigger i wouldn't go any bigger than 19. RS4's come stock with 19's. 20's i think will look too big and probably goofy.

Quite alright... I'm all set, I found some new wheels. I was just in panic mode earlier, but all is good now. Thanks. :-)

What is the wheel offset?? What size tires?? Did you have to modify the fenders?? I ask becuase i just ordered some 19's with et35 and 245/35/19 and the tire rack guy said they'll rub and i'll have to roll fenders.

I had 19s with ET35 and 245/35/19s. With the Audi sport suspension I was rubbing only when going over major bumps. With ET38 - never rubbed.
