They are going to be very tall. Are you trying to go taller for a specific reason?

No reason it’s just something available close to me.

225/50r18 = 26.86" diameter.

B8 sedan/avant normal range is 26.0"±.25" diameter.
B8 allroad normal range is 26.7"±.05" diameter.

So it's a little bigger than even allroad tires. And the allroad has an extra 1/2" from the wheel hub to the wheel well/fenders compared to the sedan/avant.

I guess some aspect will reflect on how loaded you tend to run your vehicle. I tend to have minimum load in my car (ie, just me, maybe groceries), so I don't have to worry about significant compression in the rear.

225/45r18 would be a spot on match to the normal sedan/avant diameter range.
