Default Wheel choice question

I recently bought a 96 a4 2.8 V6 12v. It came with the stock wheels with winter tires on them. It is getting warmer out so I was thinking about buying an extra set of rims with some summer/all season tires. What do I need to look for? I don't like huge rims, I have stock suspension. What is a good size, width as well. Thanks

*edit*: I don't know much about wheels and price is an issue for me, just want something not too expensive

Stock 17" S4 wheels or B7 split-spoke sport wheels look good on an A4, don't cost too much, and will go directly onto the car. Go to the S-car subforum here and look at the sticky posts at the top - choose the S4 wheel gallery and play around with that - you'll see all different sizes and styles that may help you narrow it down.

BBS LM's! They look good, are inexpensive and thats all you need to know! jk, what he said ^

Look for "replicas" of wheels you like, just beware of low quality reps.
