    LMs will also need a 3mm or 5mm spacer to clear the brakes.

    That has to be before... 'Cause that looks hideous (hint hint). If you have the dough to buy real LM's, then you should have enough to buy a set of coilovers too.

    Re: bbs LMs and stock suspension

    yeah, he got the LMs before the PSS9s

    in reality, you should do the C/Os first, then when you get the wheels, all is set. If you get 19s first, then you'll want to drop the car every time you look at it.

    the tires are also a 245/35. I don't think it looks terrible without the C/Os, but that's just me.

    Also, I don't think he had spacers on this setup. We're gonna have to confirm that tho.

    What cartel said is true. If you can afford LMs, you can afford C/Os. Don't be cheap, go with the Ohlins!

    Re: bbs LMs and stock suspension

    My car doesn't look that bad at the stock height. Look at the little exhaust tips, those things are a joke.

    BBS 19 x 8.5 +32, Michelin ps2's 245/19's, and yes, sitting at stock height. No spacers as the ofset is the most aggressive that one can put on the car safely. There was a little bit of rubbing once in a while

    I really should have kept that car. It was so amazingly clean.

    BTW, who is looking for LM's? There is a set in my garage.

    That sounds like a dig on Raudi for not being able to afford a coilover suspension.

    Re: bbs LMs and stock suspension

    ^^ word. i dont like that look on the audi, IMHO, but everyone seems to love the LM. Thats why if i were to get a legit lip wheel i would try to get something like HRE's R-Series with the reverse lip so that teh face is the same size as the wheel, not an inch smaller.

    BTW, I got so many compliments on the way the step lip looked. Everyone that saw them in person loved them.
