lazerviking (nic)'s flat five a8 wheels were 18x8.5 in 215/35. he sold them a while back on vortex I think for $600-800.. you can find them in that price range pretty easily

put the 16s and 20mm spacers on the avant..







needs more low and wide..

raised the sedan to an ugly height. the fronts look like they can go like higher than stock maybe.. I raised the front and back as high as I could without taking the suspension off, no corners match and it needs to be worked on.. one rear corner is stuck and I'm not sure if I can adjust it without removing it...

Damn it's still stuck? That blows.

Hurry up and pay your Dad back so you can go low. **** air ride too.

Also, nice laces.

You should take off the bumper cover when you have a chance and push that dent out!
