cool, thanks. cant wait to put them on

 

I made and installed some reinforcement brackets for the rear sway bar mounts. The new 22mm bar hasn't arrived yet, but I figured I should just put them on.

 

Nice. Took a page out of the Hotchkis design it looks like.

 

Yes, but cost a LOT less.

 

Got my Hotchkiss from someone here for $350 shipped. That still seemed like a lot but I think new set retails for somewhere around $700!!!!!!!

 

How ridiculous will 18inch wheels look on stock suspension? and what would be the best lowering option, im little low on budget so i was thinking about bilstein sport shocks/h&r sport springs.

 

It looks pretty goofy without a drop. You may be in luck though - I've got suspension for sale. PM me if you're interested.

 

I don't think it looks bad at all. Looks way better than 15/16's I think. I'd also like to see what's out there for lowering options for these cars. Never done suspension before so don't know what's good/bad

May have some slight interest in that suspension if it's a good quality setup.

 

Today I ordered a new thermostat as it appears mine is stuck open once again even though it was replaced back in February with a new one. Oh well, cheap part to replace.

I also ordered some vinyl carbon fiber to put around the plastic that's around the shifter. It's peeling and looks terrible as many of you have probably experienced. I'll post pics once it's done.

 

heres my old A4 on stock suspension with 18s


with H&R sport springs and OE sport struts
