Default Audi 19" 5-arm hollow spoke (using Winter Tires)

I will be using Audi 19" 5-arm hollow spoke wheels (8k0071499) for winter. I have a second set.

Tires: Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D

Should I use 235\45 19's or 245\40 19's (26.7" diameter) ?

I cant find the diameter for 235\45 19 on the 8.5" rims.

What's the largest diameter I can use with the 5-arm spoke wheels? I think the stock Conti Sport Contact 3's are 26" in diameter?

Will 26.7" rub?

Try using this wheel/tire calculator. It should help you decide. One thing to keep in mind is that, overall, thinner is better for winter tires.

Good luck.
