Default Need advice please

Just got my 18s and they look nice with the car but it looks very weird with the stock springs because it looks like monster truck. I know nothing about lowering a car nor the good brand for a good price. Help me out if you can guys. I have a 97 a4 quattro with 18s bsa 304s auto

There are many good options for lowering. One thing you have to decided is how low do you want to go? Another is do you want to have adjustable height and stiffness?

Coilovers tend to get you lower and are adjustable, but are of course more expensive. A good shock/spring combo is another way to go. Personally I had the Eibach Pro system Plus on my '96 and I am planning on putting in the same setup on my '01.

Other good brands are Koni and H&R. If you are going to get springs, make sure you upgrade the shocks as well.
