Default Make over of my A4 pics inside

So I bought some 19 and they just didn't look all the great with the stock sport suspension. After some searching I decided to go with Teins S4 springs. I also painted the calipers red, tinted the windows, and painted the wheel spokes black. The stance it has now with being lowered is much nicer. I should have been this way from factory.

Here are the before:

Feel free to leave feed back on the new look.
Thanks,

If you were wondering I'm running 235/35/19...with spacers. I am using the stock sport shocks as it stated it was ok to use them. At some point I will change them out too.

Yip, that's why I had to lower it and paint the spokes. Something about the spoke design, it just didn't look right on the car. Or perhaps because the wheels were so big.

I'm very happy with the way it looks now. I'm going to need to roll the fenders though, I have slight rubbing at times. Dont wanna damage those nice new tires on there.

Thanks, I agree the wheels came out good. I just hope the paint stayes on. I've read serveral posetive and negative results from painting wheels. I couldn't find any black wheel paint. So I used automtove black paint. I laid down 3 coats, and laid down 3 clean coats on top of that. We will see.
I guess if it does come off over the winter, I can eithe do it again, or get them done professionally.
