SO yea liek it says all u guys with coilovers what do u use for a ride height for the winter and snow, or what is the OEM ride height? fender to ground?

TIA

 

You beat me to it! I was actually about to ask the same question. Just finishing my coil over kit and want to set my ride height before having it aligned.

 

welll im tlaking abotu what i should raise my car to for the winter..... when its lowered during the warm months i have it down to like 24-25inches front ground to top of wheel-well. However i am also running stock wheels, no spacers, and im so so close to be tucking tire. if u got spacers or bigger wheels i would reccomend 25.5 inches.

 

Stock wheels, no spacers. Looking for the same thing you are. However, I might as well set myself up for the summer in advance, do you find your front bumper dragging on a lot of $hit at 24-25in? What do you mean "so close to be tucking tire?"

 

My car is corner balanced, so it stays there.

I do know, if I did drive in deep snow, the front end would be a nice plow.

 

Yea end of last winter when i got the CO's installed, and i was PLOWING snow every time it snowed, all my grills would be packed with snow. and yes i scrape my front bumper and sides very easy if im not careful, especially up here in new england. tucking tire... like if u look form the side of may car. my tires starts to dissappear into the wheel-well a little bit. thats all that means. but if u get bigger wheels and spacers then u cant tuck tire cause ull hit/rub on the fender.

Ic, what ur saying 2k, but mine is WAY to low to leave it for a whole winter with Ice/road heaving and just everyday shitty New england roads.

 

2k, what wheels do you have?

 

RS4 replicas i believe those would be.

 

This is my first winter with my S4 on coilovers. I'm hoping I can keep my ride height the same because I don't want to pay to have my car aligned and then again in the summer. Driving to work today was an adventure though because I still have my z-rated 18" wheels on.

 

I am getting my COs on this coming week and I will be plowing my driveway with my front bumper. Thats if it ever snows here.
