The rise of a Lady - or - The first Audi A2 build thread on s|w
About the wheels moving towards - it's typical on fwd vags, and you almost (propbly every s/w member knows blue vento, but it's an exception) cannot deal with it
They are awesome but hard to come by in decent condition. They come usually by in heavy used condition for around 500€. But if there is a cheap set I might get weak.
rake for a2 sounds kinda ga#...
about the drop: i'm feeling the progress, needs ant least one more cm in both sides
and now about the wheels: as you can't go with anything like ssr xr4 (nor do I, living in east eu sux hard) i suggest you r14 widened steelies with mb w123 hub caps - this would look awesome
As I said, from this hight onwards the wheel is moving towards the front of the car which looks pretty strange if its static...
Widened steelies with hub caps? I cannot think about how that looks. Do you have a pic?

To be honest: I have no clue. These ones are too "delicate" (I lack the right word for it). This car needs more "thick" ones. But the selection in germany is nothing compared to america or Japan.
But there is still so much to do so that there will be new wheels next year at the earliest.
Better? (Dropped her 1cm front and 2cm in the rear)
I admit it could be a little lower but from this hight on the rear wheel is starting to tilting forward which looks stupid in my opinion. And I don't want to have a rake also. :/
Yes it is possible to drop her even more but there are two things: Roads are bad here and she is my daily and I need to get her approved by TÜV in the next week and usually even a little rubbing means TÜV-fail. But to be honest: I guess I might drop her a little more than that if rub-free possible (unluckily rub-free means no rubbing when four people plus luggage are in).
Thankies!
They're used KW V1 from a dude that barged into the german A2 forums and mumbled something about selling them. I insta-raised my hand and shouted "here".
