Your 215/55/16 tire has a sidewall of 118.25mm.
Your 255/50/16 tire has a sidewall  of 127.5mm., so, if you want more
sidewall the 55 tire is the better one. However the 255/50 tire has a
sidewall 15mm. taller than the recommended 225/50/16 Audi OEM.
This 255/50 tire will give you approximately 4.75% slower speedometer
reading compared to the 225/50 OEM tire and will impair acceleration by the
same percentage. Your gas mileage should improve as well.
HTH.
Tom.
