    WTF! It's not lower... Rather higher



    Looks awsome to me, not to low and not as high as mine with Audi Sport Springs that lowers 20/20...

    the bilstein/eibach should lower 35 in the front and 30 in the rear... As the fenders on our S6´s are asymmetric the look should be leveld, On my car it´s a bigger cap on the front fenders then yours...

    Allow also the suspension to settle, can drop a bit more in a week or so.

      The only thing that really bugs me Thomas is the cheap Danmobility mirrors on your otherwise flawless saloon, I know that you bought it this way but I can´t wounder if the prev. owner was a little

          Thomas: Haha nä vem gör det

          I´ll give it some time to settle as said, because this is why i´m ordering the same setup (looking at the images from you link that says bilstein/eibach)

            Thomas,

            Great link, good to see not only the various gaps tyre / wheel arch gaps, but also a load of C4s with different types of rims and suspension / stances.

            The extra photos of your car, albeit a bit high, are nice to see. Any engine photos just to leer at.

            Measure your gap now and measure it in say three weeks time, to see if it has settled down a bit. Have you checked the part numbers on the springs and on the box and in their catalogue to see that they all match up and are the ones that you wanted.

            Kind regards.

              Yeah, because they are different on the avant in height i believe...

              Here is mine with unknown shocks and sport chassie springs...





              Looks okay in the rear but way to high in the front arch...

                Hehe ok sorry

                Havent thought about the mirrors realy...
                They are made of brushed aluminum, not plastic junk.
                Could it not have been an option?

                Nothing that i'm bothered by anyway...

                  Aha they are brushed... don´t think they where optional, but on a regular S6 with chrome trim they will probablly suit up nice... you should go with blue or carbon me like carbon

                  Flawless on picture... to bad you lived so far away otherwise i could have it polished and then i would be flawless

                    I measured the gaps today...

                    Front 42mm
                    Rear 69mm

                    The front will probably settel a bit but in the rear? Hmm... Njää! Not 30mm hehe...
                    Will check the spring numbers on sunday.

                      As i wrote before, looking at summer wheels.
                      Came up with the brilliant idea of ​​buying spacers, and use my MTM Cup 1 wheels from the RS.
                      It will probably not be out on the street this summer anyways

                      H&R have spacers from 112 to 130.
                      15, 20, 22mm...

                      The Cups are 8,5x18" ET52
                      What width should I go for the best fit?

                      Seen many that have 8.5" with ET35.*
                      Can I have lower ET?


                      I'm tiered of white...
                      Respray! Black, grey???

                        Avus silver.

                        Might be perceived as boring, but will match every car and every colour, and will look good with fresh paint.

                        The correct colour code is on here somewhere.

                          A bit off topic, but does anyone have the paintcode for the silver that is on the porsche twistys?

                            Have you thought about Lowlighting them as they are?
                            It'll be unique, and a great novelty on a well used product!
                            What i mean is using the same colour as your car that i hate you for having, and thin line bordering all the edges.

                            Not only will it attract the eyes to the car as a whole, but would look mental in motion!!!
                            Do you know what i mean? Some Rum fell into my gullet after dinner so i'm not so sure that made sense!!!

                              One for sale in Japan, towards the end of the video shows the engine and the person driving it.

                                b) That car is not for sale in Japan. That advert is old. The car got bought by someone in Canada. In Calgary now, I am told (was here in Vancouver for a short period but I missed it).
