260/35r19
I have a 2013 audi tts and Im needing new tires..i found a really good deal on some 260/35r19...but im not sure if these will fit/rub..currently on 255/35r19...can someone let me know if theyve gone a bit wider as well?

The offset of the S5 wheels and A4 are quite different. 255/35/19 is a genuine factory tire size for both cars, but your wheels were not intended for the A4, so they're sticking out a bit more than they should. They probably look awesome but as you've found, there is a chance they'll rub, especially when carrying a heavy load and/or if lowered.
And this too has nothing to do with the OP's question, but I guess that's par for the course, right?

I don't have the answer but before changing to a staggered setup I would consider if and how it will affect the car (handling and the control of the Haldex system) and not only consider the looks.

I don't believe you can go to a staggered set up on an AWD car. You can usually never get the tire circumference to be the same. So if you want to go wider then you'll need to do all 4 .
