i don't know what to do!!
either colour code the lower bumpers and front end.
or to get some 17" rs4 alloys.
both are about 200.
and i only have 200 atm lol
your advice.
will 17" make my car higher?
(then need lowering?)
cheers

17s will not make it higher unless you get the wrong profile tyre.

I put colour code as I think you should lower before or at the same time as alloys

Not sure to be honest mate. Know I wanna change tho - Might just keep the A8 reps for winter as I won't get much for them. Fancy a cheeky bit of dish next. Or mabee merc rims.
Any Suggestions Fellas?? I'd like to get a few opinions.
p.s sorry for hi-jacking your threat pip polo
