Default A4 Newbie in need of some advice...

Hi all. I just bought a 2004 A4 3.0 Quattro without sport pkg, and now want to buy new wheels and a great suspension pkg to go along with it. Does anyone have any recommendations for a suspension pkg that is tight, but not quite as rigid as the sport suspension offered by Audi? Also, one that will look good with 18" wheels (tight around the wheel wells)? I'm very ignorant when it comes to this, so any advice/help would be greatly appreciated! Good to be a new member of the Audi community!

There are a lot of variables jasper.

How much do you want to spend?

Do you have snow?

Coilovers/shocks?

achtuning.com and hartmannwheels.com have wheels for audi's.

I can get some 18" Lorinser LM5 wheels for a great price, but I'm a bit hesitant because they're specifically fit for MB. I know they have the same bolt pattern, and is it a matter of getting the proper hubcentric rings, or is it still a bit dicey? A shop in LA called CEC Wheels refused to sell and install the Lorinser wheels on my A4, which made me a bit wary. Is there really an issue, or do you think CEC is simply under contract with Oettinger to only sell their wheels to Audi/VW customers? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
