Has anyone put aftermarket wheels/tires on a B9 A4 yet? These stock Premium Plus 18" things are hideous, and the all-season tires are terrible.

I'd like to go to 19s and have the wheels look more flush with the fender, while avoiding rubbing. Thoughts on width, offset, and tire size? I'd also like to lower it an inch or so, likely with H&R Sports.

We have had the chance to measure the new A4, so there are plenty of options for 19" wheels. Most of what we have is 8.5" wide and ranging from ET30 to ET40 depending on the design of the wheel. The 8.5" allows for a 255/35R19 size for reference.

I have a B8.5 A4 and upgraded to Vossen 19 x.9.5 ET 40 with 255/35R19. I was NOT happy with how they looked on the car at all, car set too high, wheel GAP was ridiculous and she looked like an SUV. I put Eibach Sport Spring and dropped her 1.5" in the rear and 1.8" in the front. Now I am happy, the stance is mildly aggressive and the handling is amazing with the center of gravity being lower.

I'm also interested in getting a set of 19" wheels and tires for my B9 A4. I'd make my 18" the Winter Set up and get actual winter tires and get rid of the all-seasons that came with the A4.

I'm trying to find a set of rims that comes on the S4 (19" 5-arm-rotor design matte Titanium wheels - pictured below). I feel like those would look amazing on my A4 and I'd make them my "Summer Set-Up" with a good set of summer tires. Ideas or suggestions?
