Wheel offset question???

[eurotecknik]

Would 19x8 with 45 offset fit the B5 A4. If possible, what tire do you recommend. Will it look ok?

unless you have forged wheels anything more then 17 will crack on major city streets eventually - iirc 45 is stock offset so yes it will fit and to save money you probably don't want low profile you can go with 215/40/19 if you want to do low profile then 235/35/19
