NeedingAnAudi - I will be sure to look at ST coilovers. I am pretty broke though so I think I'm still going to try and do the cut springs route. I mentioned the diameter problem to my buddy, he said I have to get shorter struts from a different car (he said Scion TC's have short struts). I'm going to try and source these parts used and see how they work. I will keep you posted.
BTW - do you have S4 headlights? They look different than mine.

I have H&R springs and I'm not even close to being that low. My buddy with a low Accord said to cut my springs halfway. He said it's cost effective and will give me better handling. Will I be as low as those 2 B5's with a halfway chopped H&R springs? I don't care about the handling aspect, I just want the car lower.

:facepalm:
You can't cut the springs, they change diameter so they would not seat correctly after chopping them up. Get a set of ST coils. I'm on them along with Nick.

I didn't know B5's can go that low. So wicked!
Alex - avant is bagged (remember him saying he built the whole system himself instead of buying a kit) on 17's with clearanced front control arms
Nick - sedan is slammed on bottomed out ST coils on 17s, and I think he's too lazy to clearance his control arms so they just slam into the body
