Default I have 19X8's 245/35/19's it depends on......

the offset. Check out the pictures in this thread. https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/718247.phtml
I have maybe 10mm's of clearance between the aluminum upright and the inside edge of the tire. No rubbing at all anywhere. Stock sport suspension not lowered. If you had 19x9's they would have to have a different offset and stick out farther.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/718247.phtml">Check the pics</a></li></ul>

Default NE Bold ones doing Staggered on A6

thinking about running 19X8.5 n 19X9.5 with very close attention to overall diameter of the factory tire size. i came up with 235/35-19 n 265/30-19.Should I take this leap.??

There are better ways to control understeer than wider tires up front.
