Default Potential 19" wheels for A5/S5

<center><img src="http://images.channeladvisor.com/Sell/SSProfiles/82000037/Images/1/2230%20SSS.jpg"></center><p>i found out that the rear wheels for the Chrysler Crossfire would fit the A5 and S5. i own a crossfire and the wheels look really nice.
same center bore, lower offest, but 9" wide not 8.5"
basically the tire will be 4mm futher from the brake caliper (away from the car) and the wheel will be move 16mm further out
i wonder if we can fit the standard tires on a wider rim
i know on the crossfire the standard tire size is 255/35 19", same as the A5.<ul><li><a href="http://wheel%20offset%20calculator">http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp</a></li></ul>

I think the A5 S line and S5 wheels are much better looking and they are 9" wide too.

i think these look a lot better than most of the aftermarket 19" wheels i have seen posted on this site
they don't look like wheels off a rice rocket
