that rear set up will rub for sure

you'd have trouble stuffing a 265 series tire in the rear wheel wells of a lowered B6 let alone a B5.

Depending on brand of tire, you might rub in the front as well.

You might clear with Yokohamas or Falkens, but if you're thinking about BFG KDW2s, there's no doubt in my mind you'll rub cause they run wide. S03s will probably cause you a little grief as well.

Handling will be worse.

These cars already understeer badly, even with sport springs. Will be even worse if you go bigger on the rear.
