According to tirerack.com, the 19" for your car is 235/35/19 , so your 245/35/20 would be too big.
Check with a reputable tire shop.

well, all done !!!


245 x 35 R19

20" was too risky :)

Don't do it!

OOOO

why not ?

d u mean 245x35 R19 ???? LOL, i just approved order :) Guy from Tirerack called me today to tell me, they recomend 235x35 R19 !!! LOL, but, my friend said, spacers can help to no rubbing.

Any idea ????

I have Wanli rubber, 225/35 20's on my 2001 A6 2.8 30V and they fit perfect with a thin adaptor on the front axle. I have no rubbing issues at all. Take a look

Hope that helps, probably a little late if you already ordered the 19's though.

crap !!!
Why did you posted that late !!!! :(

:)

Hmm, il'l see, how look's 19" with 245x35 ;)

BTW: dude, Ypur's rims are open, so you need some nice disk rotors and brakes :)

I bought also angel eyes headlights and improved front grill (silver trim arround is black now) :)

Next week il'l send you a picture.

here is the headlights

I would not do it. Our cars are really designed for maximum 18" wheels even though I opted for 19". The ride will be very harsh and you will lose performance due to the added weight of the 20" wheels. Furthermore, the price of thetires will be very expensive if you want to purchase decent ones. You will also run into problems if you plan on lowering your car. Putting 20" wheels on the car will raise the car to where you will look like an Allroad!

Hey, but to each their own!

OOOO

They will look great............................................. .....................................On a Honda!

OOOO

yea man. stay away from the 20". they dont look good on our cars. in the boston area, i've seen a couple of people around here with 20" and it looks terrible because they raise the car like 50 ft. and you get a major wheel gap because of the smaller tire and the car isnt lowered. for the best look, get the a8 rims in either 17" or 18" and lower ther car. that looks crazy

20" is not suited for our cars, that's something reserved for big bodies, like "Old School Lacs", any type of "Slab" really, but definetly not an Audi of any kind.

19'" is cutting it a lil' close too unless you get the right kinda wheels, also 30 series tires feel like crap and resonate a lot of road noise unless you get quality (very expensive).

Also do you like to take corners hard, does your area have messed up roads/streets/hwys, because 30 series tires are more likely to bulge where the rubber meets the lip creating horrible vibrations as you pic up speed.

You don't want your beautiful car looking like a "Dunk" do ya, you know them cars with the horribly large rims, the kind you gotta get out of wearing a parachute.

Sorry, I just really hate overly large rims, I'm from K-Town, Texas so I've seen it all my life, used to think it was "pimp" when I was 13...

Yeah I was thinking about putting on some nice rotors/calipers, but I'm probably going to sell the car pretty soon. I have a baby on the way and I might be losing my job, so..........?

As for the tail lights, I thought about buying some like that but smoked with the LED's. I personally don't like the clear all that much, but I think it probably will be an improvement over the stock tail lights.
