Can you turn set that low? And are those stock tires? Also, I can do VMAXX with Quattro, correct? How high can you go?


Your car is perfect example, because here is my audi... exactly like yours but red.

I can turn? If the steering wheel is all the way to one side the tire will touch the fender liner, but they've pretty much rolled themselves so whatever. I went a tiny bit lower front and back since that picture. Yes stock 205/55 tires. Yours is a 96, not 97? It doesn't look like you have the euro trunk lid that came with 96.

Sorry for double post, but how often do you bottom out at that setting?

http://ctny.audiworld.com/mark/a4/diff/ see how the trunk lids are different on the license plate row? If yours is a 96 the original trunk lid should have the longer spot that is able to fit a euro plate.
I don't bottom out too often. But I do have to drive very carefully. I have about 1.5" ground clearance at some spots. I scrape all the time and have to go over speed bumps / parking lot entrances / my driveway crooked to not hit if possible. I have the Panzer skid plate which helps a lot. To me, it's worth it.
Your car is extremely clean for a 12v by the way.

Hmm. thats interesting. The carfax showed no incidents. I think an incident bad enough needing a whole new trunk lid would be reported. Oh well, I'm not too worried. It is interesting none the less.

Thanks for your compliment, I think I got a hold of a one in a hundred in my opinion. Sadly enough, I can't take credit for keeping it like this for the last 13 years though, as I just picked it up last week. It still has original floor mats and not even the leather shows signs of wear at 79k miles, the paint is almost flawless other than the hood, which has some rock chips, but nothing bad..


Can you link me to the Panzer skid plate? Or is it purems.com too?

Ive got more pics... please excuse me while I *****...
