Default Rim Width Question

Hey Guys,

As some of you know, I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on some rims. Just wanted to double check the tire width/size for the B5...right now this guy had the tired mounted on his B6 a4 previously, so wanted to double check if it'll work for us too.

"fresh Michelin Pilot Sport 2s 245/35/18 all around."

Will 245/35/18 be okay on my car? Thanks in advance everyone!

with 245s you'll need your fenders rolled and just the right offset

Default So will I run into

any serious rubbing issues or anything after rolling my fenders? Are there any downsides? (I'm pretty new at this whole wheel/rim thing if you couldn't tell.)
