Default Suggestions: Rim Shopping A4 1.8t Quattro

Shopping for wheels for my car. I plan on lowering it with the Eibach 1.5" springs. Will I have any problems with rubbing if I go with 19" rims on a '99 1.8t Quattro and I lower it? Here are a couple of the sets of rims I've been looking at. Any suggestions? TIA

You'll have no problems rubbing with the correct tire size. The higher you go up in wheel size, the "thinner" your tire should get to maintain the correct rolling diameter.

Thanks for the info guys. I will probably go with the 18's and drop it low like you said. I really like the looks of your car BTW.

Wish I could! I have a set of 24's off my Explorer that I need to sell before I can get some wheels for the Audi. I traded my Explorer for the Audi and kept the wheels and DVD player, etc.
