    Ideas for what I can do with my Audi A4 B8 2008 2.0TDI

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hello.

    I just bought me my first car and wondering if anyone here has any ideas for what I can do with it.

    There are 20 inch rims on it now , and it is therefore very high behind .
    Is this something I should change , and how much should I in that case lower the vehicle .

    Unfortunately, it this the only picture I have of the car atm. thanks for all the answers !

    B8 started as 2008 model year in Europe ;)

    Get coilovers to lower the car, H&R, Solowerks and STs are the best bang for your buck, Bilsteins or KWs if you want to be fancy. Do an exhaust and tune as well. Not sure what the options are though, since we didn't get the diesel option over in North America.

    He's in Norway, so he has a B8. US B8s were from 2009 - 2016, but EU received them in 2008.

    Incorrect. Europe had the B8 in 2008.

    definitely start with lowering the car a bit first, it will make the wheels and whole setup look so much nicer, you may not even need many more exterior mods after that.

    look into maybe finding the suspension from an S4 or an aftermarket Bilstein B12 or Koni kit, will give you a nice ride height but not too low, still good for practical daily driving. maybe Solo Werks if you want to do coilovers. and i'd recommend something like 15mm spacers on the rear wheels to make them more flush and sit nicer.
