Default How much to Drop a A4 by????????????

Hi i have a A4 at the moment and was wondering if anyone knew what is a reasonable distance to drop it by as i have found springs in the sizes of 30,35,40,45 and 50mm for all roughly the same price.

Many thanks

Ady

First of all.....Use the search function at the top of the screen.

We can't help if we don't know the year, sport or non, tire and wheel size, etc.

10-12 inch drop is common.. May have to roll the fenders.

Also, suggest saving your money for adjustable coil-overs such as H&R's or Voghtlands. This way you can "Dial them in".

Seriously...use the search function. These guys will flame you...big time.

Do yoyr research, then come back on the forum part....trust me.

I can't really help you because I'm no expert. I have a 2003 (b6).

If it was me I'd contact these guys: www.renn-art.com but I see you're in the UK.

this may sound like a dumb question but is there even such thing as a 1996 B5 A4 1.8I non turbo? i've never heard of such a thing. To the best of my knowledge the '96 only comes in 2.8. and isn't a 1.8 gauranteed to be turbo? I'm confused....
