Not true.
I personally don't like the look of the 20" wheels, but different strokes for different folks.
I decided to go with 19" and the size is absolutely perfection for the B7.

I heard that if you go bigger than 18" Audi voids warranty at least in my city they do! Which is really stupid! But those 20" look really bad from those poor quality pics. And dont 20" rims ofset your gps as well and something else the mechanic told me @ audi because I was looking to buy 19" and he kind of opened up my eyes with all the things that went wrong from his experiance being a mechanic

How is the car handling with the 19s? I would imagine it would still be okay. However, once you get to 20s I would think you are severely taking away from the performance of the car.

I like the wheel design, need better pics with the car though!
I have a question....do you notice any lack of performance with the bigger wheel? I'm thinking of going to 19" but I hear the performance and acceleration goes way down after upgrading. Has anyone noticed this or recommend any brand that wont drag me down?

I think it is safe to say that a 20" wheel with such a low profile tire on an A4 for is going to ride quite rough.There is just notenough meat to absorb dips and bumps. This is the exact reason why I did not go to a 235/35/19 on my A4.
