Default Trade my coil overs for air ride??! my RS4 19" wheels for your chrom 20"

hello, im making my audi more into a show car the previous owner had it more for racing but i got a semi race car already. and plus its a wagon! lol but anyway i got a set of tien full adjustable coil overs with damper plates i believe and i want to trade for a air ride kit, also i got ORIGINAL! not fakes! audi rs4 wheels that i would trade for a set of chrom 20".

this is all one for one i dont have extra cash to give. everyone that researches and buys lots of parts knows that these items are not that cheap.

thanks, also here are some pics of the wheels and suspension i can post pics later if anyone is interested.

original RS4's have a much different offset and would be poking much more...

leave your car as it is, chrome 20's would make the throw up.

B5 + Chrome 20"s = FAIL.

Generally, airbags cost more than coilovers. Especially comparing it to Teins.
Anyhow, I wish you luck in the trade.

I think your car looks good the way it is now. Aftermarket sideskirts to match the front and rear would definitely enhanced the look of the car.

Air ride for a quattro car can cost you around 4K....coilovers cost around $1500. Good luck finding someone that is stupid enough to do the trade with you. 20s on a B5 Avant look like butt, even with air bags.
