wow looks great.

how is the ride with the coilovers? I've thought about springs for mine, but not sure how forgiving the ride is going to be...

also, did your hood come with the 4 rings in the front or is that a mod???

Coilovers...
 
To be honest...with the 20's...it gets a little jarring...but on perfect
roads it's amazing...both my previous cars, 96 GTI VR6 and 2000 BMW MCoupe were lowered with BilsteinShocks and H&R race springs...and weren't as harsh as this...so its obviously the tire/rim size...but i love the look. Just adding springs to a stock shock ussually results in a really bouncy ride...unless you have the sports package...then it might be alright i suppose. If i had to do it over again...i would do it again...but maybe with 19's ?

I added the Audi rings and the badgeless grill to kind of emulate the R8...one of my favorite mods so far...get a lot of hate on the forums for it but in person everyone thinks its amazing...sets the car off from every other Audi out there.

you should take a pic of the front...

I'm considering the drop with 19's.. and adding spacers to the factory wheels

Why do you have a wider lip/rim and tire on the rear of an AWD car?

looks pretty sick to me

996Jammy Jul 11, 2010 10:27 PM

looks dope Riz. Do u live in or out of NYC, cuz I'm scared to throw on some 20's on these mean streets. Its bad enough with the factory 19's! You're not experiencing any rub even turning wheel lock to lock?

A5RIZ Jul 12, 2010 08:14 AM

Live in Queens...in the city a lot though...and it is my daily driver...commute to CT everyday
So far no rubbing at all and the car is slammed...fronts are 8.5's with 255 rubber...I wouldn't go any bigger or wider unless recommended by someone who has it

beemer freak Jul 12, 2010 11:44 PM

how do you like the 2.0 compared to the 3.2(if youve driven it)

A5RIZ Jul 13, 2010 12:08 AM

Driven a 3.2 A4...not as fast but close enough for me...
Wouldve bought the S5 if I was looking for all out power
but the 2.0 is enough
