Quick question, please help!

I have '00 A4TQTip without sport package, i.e. wheels are 15inch. If I will put audi OEM sport suspension on could I still run on 15inch wheels until I get the new ones or should I wait with suspension upgrade util I get the wheels?

Thanks for your help.

Igor

I'm sure if the Sport package suspension can handle the 16's...it can handle your 15's.

the 15inch wheel and 17inch wheel including respective tire? I.e. will it be to low on 15inch wheels?

The total wheel diameter should not change. The 17" tires will have much less sidewall.
