Default thoughts on more lip in rear with 18x8s or 19x8s?

most folks like more lip in the rear but i have noticed custom non-staggered wheels for audis usually have the same amount of lip.

your thoughts on going with more lip in the rear with either 18x8s or 19x8s?

offset here will not be a problem since that can be customized.

TIA.

Default put the wider ones up front to help reduce understeer

who cares how it looks.

Default Change othe offset, but keep width the same. Otherwise the car will understeer more.

Or as Phil suggests, run wider up front. Audi did that in racing at one point, until the governing body told them to stop.
