^Stasis Tracksport (still made by Konis) all the way down. I guess it wouldn't be that bad with 45 tires but those are 40 tires.

I also know a local guy with Stasis Motorsport who couldn't go low with his B5 A4. He had 18's with 215/40 and still had about one and a half finger left with the setting all the way down.

^^^Did he remember to cut the 4" bump stops to 1"? It says that right on the installation instructions. If you don't the car will just sit on them causing a bumpy *** ride and it won't go any lower than it looks there.

^ Remember tho, on the picture he was running stretched 17 with 40 tires instead of 45.

Nate - He's running a set of Vogtlands now and is able to go a lot lower. He should had been able to go a lot lower than that before he had to cut the bump stops, at least I did.

Could there be different Konis? Like I said, my buddy with a Stasis MS was all the way down and he still had a finger gap.

Its possible, mine had a chrome covering with red rings like in my pics here. As you can see i still have a 3 inches of travel or more left to go and im almost sitting the tires the same height as the fender.
