Default getting audi a4 lowered

hello pple,

hope ur audis are running fast and smooth...

i have this audi a4 for like over a year now... its a 2001 1.8t qt.... im thinking to get it lowered....so i can buy some 18" OZ rims.... (probably OZ 35TH ANNIVERSARY OR BLACK CANOVA).....

All of us Michigan Boys are buyin' coilovers so we can adjust height, etc. I'd recommend doing that instead of just droppin', er. But maybe that's just me.

Another reason is, what if it's to low? Then you have to go and pay for it to be raised, etc. Mreh... just an idea.

As I understand this is a job you can do in your driveway, so, I'd do it there and save a lot of money. If you need help the C-bus boys probably can help you out.

Personally I think a spring shock combo would work if you want that route, for full adjust ability and what not, yeah C/O would win but for cost springs/shocks works just fine.



And you don't need to listen to those people from up north all the time, I mean, they are from Michigan

(guess where I go to school)

I can only guess. Haha. I like The Spartans, so we're good. I'm for O when they go against UoM. Boo Blue!!!

What price difference are we talkin'? I may do the spring/shock combo instead of the adjustable. Or do the spring/shock for summer and go back to stock for the winter.

well from my research doing it properly will run you ~800 for shocks/springs and the lowest I could find for C/O were ~1,100 so your looking at about a $300 difference


and I'm gonna guess you go to Michigan State then? I have a couple friends who go there. I'm go state when you all play UofM.
