I have a 2003 A4 1.8T (FWD) and I've been thinking of lowering it, not incredibly low but enough to cover the gap from the wheels to the fenders. What would be the best way to go guys?

 

coilovers! or bags! or shocks and springs combo.

 

I have Eibach ProKit on my B5 and it is amazing - near-zero body roll on turns and I've never managed to get it to come loose on clean/dry pavement - and not for lack of trying! I look forward to hearing what you decide to do! Though it is a bit too low for some situations (dips and snow and coarse gravel) so might consider something adjustable. What conditions do you plan to drive in?
