    Help me get my priorities straight

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So pretty soon im gonna have about $2000 to spend on the car and im wondering what i should do. I have an '01 allroad and im looking into getting a set of 19's, and replacing the airbags with c/o's. If i get the 19's first i dont want it to look like, well an allroad. I dont wanna rely on the 402 mod to correct the ride height unless I can be sure it wont mess with the car. the other option would be to get the c/o's first, dial in the height with the current 17's and then eventually get the 19's. I'd like a nice set of wheels to improve the look of the car, but i dont want it to look like a 4x4 (i keep it on lvl 1 all the time) and I want an aggressive stance, and improved handling

    Re: Help me get my priorities straight

    yeah im leaning towards getting the wheels first, im thinking of some clean rs6's. the only c/o swap that i know of for the allroad is from 2bennett and they list them as 1800 and im thinking i should be able to install them myself. and yes all the maintenance is up to date, had a few problems recently so they checked the car out pretty well. the cars also still under extended warranty

    Re: Help me get my priorities straight

    yeah i already installed the H-Sports, Motul 600, and Hawk Racing pads cause ive been tracking it a little bit. i have the twin spoke 17's so im pretty sure almost any wheels will be a great weight decrease. what do you guys think of the rs6 wheels? im looking for a clean, oem+ look

    Re: Help me get my priorities straight

    I am doing C/O's then rims. Makes more sense to me. I am also including control arms, tie rods, counter balance, and h-sports in the suspension upgrade. After it is slammed I can probably deal with my rims for long enough to save for new
