It'll save me $800 I think, which I can put towards a tire/wheel combo of my own choosing. I'm going to have to buy AS or snows anyways, and I've seen a few pics lately of those 5-spoke wheels that were quite unflattering, although I liked them a lot at first.

wheels designated for the car should just bolt on, right? No monkeying around with spacers and whatnot?

what sez ye?

I did. I actually thought the 18"s were better looking.

LOL Everyone on the board already knows how I feel about the stock 19s. Heck, if they were easy to get on and off, I'd probably take them to bed and sleep with them every night!

That aside, I think you should follow your passion - which is probably to stick with the 18" so you can get the exact tire/wheel combo you want! You're already spending a chunk of change to get this car. You wanna feel good about that, right?

Well it's a decision in progress, I've never actually seen them in person, only photos, and as I said they didn't look exactly great in the last couple pics I saw. You really like them, though drrick? That counts for me. I don't really have a passion for one particular wheel at this point so I'm glad to hear that somebody loves the 19's.

Same here

go see them in person and make your choice.

The stock 18's are so boring. It makes the car look like a base A4. The 19's are the absolutely the way to go.

I absolutely love the 19's, I think they make the entire car come alive.

rktskicar

they are both (18" and 19" OEM) not very good looking IMO.

I think the OEM 18" wheels look better than the potato peeler OEM 19" wheels. I can always put the money toward a set of wheels I prefer, if I get tired of the 18" wheels.

I am going to change to all weather 18" tires anyway, for random trips to the Sierras.
