Default Audi A4 Wheel Upgrade

Just bought a 2019 Audi A4 Premium Plus. It came with OEM 18 inch wheels; however they are very small. Wondering if the 19 inch wheel would fill up more of the fender wall.

Anyone with pics or wheel suggestions?

Thansk.

Does your car have the standard or sport suspension? If you have the standard suspension you are going to have a larger “gap” between the tire and fender. The sport suspension cars are lower so there is less of a gap.

I have the the sport suspension with my car along with the 18”s and the gap is pretty small.

The overall diameter remains the same. So you’ll have the gap irrespective. Only way to get rid of your gap is to lower your car.

The outside circumference of the 18” and 19” tires is the same so it will not change your gender gap. You will need to lower the car to reduce the fender gap.

Yea, you'll need to lower the car to achieve no wheel gap.

Lowered 2015 A4 w/ 20" BD-3 for reference
