Upgrade Tire and Wheel Size Guidelines

Upgrade Tire and Wheel Size Guidelines
How do I decide the proper tire and rim size when I want to upgrade? My '02 A6 3.0 Q came with factory 16's. Nice but not aggressive enough and because I don't have the sport package I can afford to stiffen the ride a bit, but I don't want to kill the ride either.
My upgrade will be 17 or 18 inches diameter. How do I decide which width, and then how do I decide which tire size to balance control vs. comfort?
Thanks!
Gary

Gary,
This is a set of questions for leanring the value of search. Give it a go -- you'd be amazed at how many times this question has been asked and answered. You may also want to check out Stoney's Links -- GREAT reading for C5 A6 owners. You can get to it by following my signature link.
