    "Style Killers" lol. Black wheels definitely are a different look. They look nice in good light, but other than that it's a dark shadow where the wheels are. I prefer lighter colored wheels too.

    So nobody would happen to atleast least be able to tell the width of these tires then? I figured they were 18's maybe 19's in size but I also want the width

    Ya it's lowered. Looks to be about race springs height.

    If I had to guess I would think 18x8.5 with 225/40 et 30. Common enough fitment and those don't look like 235/40a

    Personally I think the tires look more like 235s than 225s, though it's hard to tell so I could very well be wrong (they don't look like they are even a bit stretched that 225's generally are). Definitely 18x8.5 or 18x9 though

    They look smaller than my 235s on 18x8.5 could be tire brand tho. Black makes it very hard to tell

    Actually I think ur right those look meaty

    So if I were to go buy race sprrings I should get the same height out of my a4? Or should I go get the struts and such too?

    I would get coilovers. St or vogland for the cheaper brands. Similar price to a strut spring combo and adjustable to the height you want vs a set height.

    they look big for 18s, especially since they are in black. my guess is 19s on 225 tires. but I cant say for sure from a pic lol

    Are there any downfalls to coilovers vs struts and springs?

    If I get coilovers do they take the place of the springs and struts?

    Not completely. Although mine is silver as well I just love the way it sits so I want something close to it.
