Default will 19s fit???

So i have the basic suspension... no sport or anything... sort of glad with where i live. i've already busted an oil pan in the blizzard two years ago.. but will the 19s rub or will they be fine with my tall suspension setup??

19s can work. 20s can even work. You just need a right tire size and offset to prevent rubbing.

There are a few guys on here with 19s on a B5 - no issues that I know of. Deal with a vendor who understands offset and they can steer you to the right specs so your wheels will fit properly without rub or interference.

damnn, that avant is crazy.... but it looks like every single one of these audi s has tubbed/rolled fenders... is there an easy way to roll the fenders on audis.. i know the baseball bat trick on older AMCs worked well but the fenders on the a4 are a bit different and might crease??? anyone know?

Yup, 19's will fit with stock suspension.

However, you need to take consideration the width of the wheels, the tire sizes, and whether or not you plan on lowering.

I don't doubt that they'd fit, but don't you think 19's or 20's on stock suspension would give off kind of a 4x4 vibe?
