How low? And what on?

[Ballan.]

Hi guys, being new to the world of the b6 i'm looking to go a bit lower. I bought a 2004 1.8t (190) quattro s line and i love it. Just needs to sit a bit closer to the road. its on 18's at the moment but i have 19's to be fitted and i've been looking at these http://www.larkspeed.com/index.pl?a=i&k=s&p=SKG70AVB00K and was interested in how low it would sit with them fitted, has anyone got a set fitted or a pic? Thanks in advance. :D

What 18's & what are your Plans with them once the 19's are on? ;);)

I'm sure i could give them a good home for the right price :D

the 18's are rs4's 19's are rs6 was planing on a refurb then possible sale of the 18's. There bubbling a bit, previous owner was using acid to clean them by the looks of it. need to find out about them springs to see how they sit first. might end up with eibachs like i had on a b5 few years back.

quick pic of what the car looks like at the moment. not the best quality taken on my phone. dont know how to make it bigger.

I would be very interested in those wheels if you do upgrade to 19's. I'd like to take them off you Pre-Refurb if that was OK with you though, that way it saves you money and i can get them done by a place near me that is very reasonable.

Why Only the Front? Have you got any Pics? I'm contemplating Lowering mine but want to see what it looks like when i finally get my new Wheels.

[Killakam78]

[sam.bird3]

You need to upload them to photo bucket then copy the img code into your post.

Very nice.
It actually looks OK only dropped at the front

Cheers, Kinda works for me to be fair....do allot of carrying so if i went lower on the back i think i may have issues wid 19""s

looks good man, my wheel swap on hold as i found 2 of the tyres had really bad splits in the backs.

[Killakam78]

stick a set of part worns on, what size are they?

[Killakam78]

mine need a good refurb, but its kinda expensive......and i dont wanna be without my car for a day loool will end up driving the the misses A3 LOL

thought bout part worns but postage is a bit if an issue.

We get garages down here in BIrmingham that specialise in part worns, good brands aswell with 4/5mm of tread...you'd pay 30 for 18 and 40 for 19, gets you out of the soft and smelly somtimes looool.
