Hello all,

Just bought my first Audi...bone stock right now but come spring I'll be looking at getting wheels/suspension setup. Will be my daily driver but my current plan is to get:

H&R Coilovers
18x8.5" Hartmann RS4 DTM reps
5mm spacers front & 10mm spacers rear

Please feel free to comment on this setup. Coincidentally anyone running these coilovers in winter? any issues???

 

No issues with coilovers, and H&R is a good choice. I do recommend trying to get a ride in someone's car with whatever brand you're looking at, so that you can see if they're 'right' for you. That said, if you can deal with a little bit of a rougher ride, any coils are far better than the stock mush. I raise my coilovers in the Winter, but only because I can't resist plowing through the deepest snow I can find on the road

I don't know what size of spacers to run to get your desired look, but I'm sure you can find exampled with some Googling (if you haven't already). I use spacers that are stud conversions - I can't tell you how much I enjoy not having to deal with wheel bolts any more!

I also highly recommend a rear anti-sway bar. They're so inexpensive for how much improvement in handling they provide - it's one of my favourite mods!

 

congrats and sweet choices to start off with for upgrades! post some pics up so we can see the car! also if you want performance look into APR chip. APR - High Performance Development for Audi, VW and Porsche Vehicles.
welcome to the forum again!

 

Thanks for the suggestions, will definitely look into the rear anti-sway bar and APR chip. Probably won't get around to posting picks until car is done.
As for the spacers, to be honest I've never been a fan of using them. But seeing how nice a flush wheel stance looks on the A4 I simply couldn't ignore doing it.

 

lol! ya i like the look of the spacers too. dont have em myself but i do like it
