Default Rolling on 19"

I put these 19" RS4 replicas with 235/35 Nitto Invo on the A3 today.
I think it looks good with the S3 front end and I'll take some decent pics once I clean her up.

Default I agree, but I'm hesitant to loose the ground clearance

My R32 scrapes on my drive way now and when there is snow on the ground I need the clearance even more. If I do it, it will have to be mild and probably no more than an inch.

Default As both cars they way the are, which do you enjoy the most? Bottomline

And don't be kind because this is an Audi board. The brutal truth, lets have it.

Default The R32 is more engaging to drive with the shorter wheelbase and ...

six speed close ratio gearbox. The suspension is tighter and the brakes are better on the R32 as well. I'm not bagging on the A3 by any means and it is a much more luxurious ride than the R32.

I much prefer mild drops over slammed. I only want about 1.5" with H&amp;R sports on my mkv.
