Default Does my car look lowered to you ?

I was looking around at pictures of other a4's with stock suspension and it looks to me like my car is quite a bit lower. Judge for yourself.

Front


Back


Side View


It'd be cool if I bought a car that was already lowered. =)

If this is stock ride height, I'd say my car is definitely lowered.

Nope, you have the sport suspension package, its about an 1" lower than normal. If you look at your shocks you will see that they are red, normal ones are either black or yellow.

I'll probably have to go with 18" wheels and. 1.5" drop with sport springs as opposed to 19" wheels and 2" drop with the race springs no?

If you plan on going 19" wheels always put the wheels on first before lowering it, that way you can calculate how much room you have left in the fender. Given you already have the sport suspension, you may actually be happy with the ride height with 19" wheels. I would say you could probably only drop it another inch with 19s on it.
