hi all & thanks for looking ive just bought some rs4 18" for my gt tdi...My spring etc need changing for a while & been told that 18" dont look to cool without a drop on the suspension....however my days of 60mm drops is over...i drive allot I need to take a drop that will complement the car/wheel....any help would be great i was told just to stick 18t suspension on my car & with the 18" it would look just right...i need the car to stay practical but look the biz thanks to all that answer

Yep Ive got mine on the new style 18" RS4's and it def needs dropping as soon as I can afford cos at the min it looks a bit like a 4x4! :grin: I think 30mm should be fine Ive seen others done at that and they look ok
