Im gonna order wheels for mine, but unsure if I should go 18" or 19"s.

Im wondering if the 19" cause any problems on the back with the sliding doors?

19"look much better than 18" but I've heard they are a lot more uncomfortable, the off set will affect the door not the diameter mate,plenty of Caddys on 19s and even 20"s, it's all down to personal preference

..bit of advice? I'm doing 500 miles a week..caddy isn't lowered yet but will be. Car is currently on 19" RS6 reps but thinking of putting some rocco wheels on. Has anyone got any pictures of one on 17's as opposed to 18's?!

Or am i better off manning up and putting up with the ride on the 18's?

Cheers
