what will fit? I have just bought an A6 S Line 2.7t. i want Rims. But every rims sit I go to has a different size and fitment. I am bout to lose my mind up in here up in here....

 

start with a site lie tirerack that will only show you wheels that will fit your car and even show you what they'll look like on the car (debatable )

 

if you don't mind sacrificing the ride, 19's look good. But a nice set of 18's will be a ood compromise. Flat face no lip looks a size bigger, so good for 18's. The rims with a lip, especially those "dip dish ones" look smaller.
As an exmaple, my 19" BBS CK looked like 20"s almost on the car and a lot bogger than my current 19" BBS RSGT's that look more like 18's.
Typicaly width is 8.5 for 19's, Tire size I would suggest 245-35-19 fora little more protection from the sidewalls.
Watch the offset and type of rim, must allow for front brake clearance. I like 35 offset because it puts the wheels right near the edge of the fenders.
Vredestein makes a good affordabel tire. KHUMO SPT is pretty good for the $, and so CHEAP!!!! 1/2 price of a goodyear or conti and a lot cheaper than Michelin and it'll last longer.
it is a big car so get a strong wheel.

 

Thank you for ur insight. Im in NC, just got back from across the water again!!! Contract work with T C Just bought an 04 A6 S LINE. Burgandy. 27K miles $21,000 off lease. I think i got a steal. I am going Giac and then exhaust.
