Default Lots of choices. If you are willing to pay.

I would really like these iforged senekas in a 19". 3" lip! Hell yeah. I just don't have $4500 for wheels.

Default You're running 235 size tire on an 8.5" wheel? didn't think it was possible :)

Seeing as factory width is 255 on an 8" wheel, you're adding 12.5 mm in rim width and subtracting 20 mm from tire width, so in the end you have a difference of 32.5 mm. That's a lot!

Default 8.5" width is widest for 235 tires. Most 255 require 8.5" minimum width>

I'm surprised Audi put them on 8" wheels.

Check tirerack and the tire specs and you'll see this.
