<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/TT45front.jpg"></center><p>Here are a few pics of my 180FWD TT. I put the wheel and tire package on the car one day before I put the sport springs on. The reduced sidewall height made the ride a little (very little) more road sensitive, but when I added the sport springs, it was like a different car.

I never had a problem with the way the car handled before, but I always liked the way the sport springs gave the car a more agressive look. My sport spring mod was for looks more than anything else.

When you're on good roads, the car feels wonderful. Cornering is much improved with less roll and it simply has a more stable feel.

On bad roads (or crossing train tracks and the like) I hate how rough it feels. You definitely feel every little bump in the road.

I couldn't be happier with the way it looks though and the ride isn't so bad that I'll go back to the stock springs.

The wheels are AEZ Simas X 18x8.5
I don't recall the exact part number to match the TT but if you call the AEZ guys they can tell you right away.
The tires are Sumitomo HTRZ II 225/40/ZR18.

I think the setup looks awesome! Gotta slow WAY down for those speedbumps though.<p>GrishFish
