I see the Vossen CV1 is available in 19" Black machined face.
seems like they should fit in without difficulty? Anyone run these currently or feel like saying they stink?

Have the oem 18's now and just a bit bored with them is all.

Not a big fan of thin spokes on a thick car, or the machined silver face on black, but that's me.

Yes, 19's would look great though! I do shudder at the thought as it's already rough on bad roads with the stock size...

Yep thats where im stuck at, Need tires so either i need to stick with the stock for comfort or..... But, if i dont make the switch now, Ill have a harder time forking out the cash at some other point in time. Its like I rationalize the new tire need into a logical point to upgrade rims. But, at the same time, I dont want my wife to hit a pothole and bend something up on the car.

The appropriate thing would be to stay 18 and just do the rubber, but, appropriate is a word that really doesnt fit this car the same way id does say a honda accord...

19s skinny spokes and 30 or 35 sidewalls dont look right on stock height RS6s. Imho

You need to be lowered and get the wheel gaps set for 255 35 19 to look good.

Otherwise stay 18s
