Default Some C5 questions for owners

Please chime in if you can answer any or all of these quick questions. Thanks!
  1. Anyone have dished wheels on their C5? (have not seen many; if so, pics and make/model of them?)
  2. Tirerack: Eibach Pro-Kit VS H&R Sport Springs? (leaning toward H&R for price & lowering, but who has used either?)
  3. Remus full exhaust... doesn't exist, anymore? (if not, which exhaust has a nice, low tone & no weed whacker sound through any RPMs?)
  4. Anybody make all weather mats that are specifically designed for the C5? (have only seen universal ones, so far) ANSWERED

#4: Yes, Audi made rubber mats specifically for A6 C5, front and rear. Check ebay for used ones, they are almost as good as new ones.

are you planning to keep your shocks or replace them when using new springs?

Sure enough, there they are. Thanks; I had browsed ebay looking for some before but none other than universals were posted at the time.

Previous owner had just put Bilstein shocks on, already. So, no need to replace those any time soon; just looking to add springs to the mix.

I've got an APR stainless exhaust on my C5 from the previous owner, and I have nothing but good feelings about it. It gives the car a nice bassy rumble from afar and makes the ride sound quite lively.

Full kit or just muffler? Any video of it?

It's a cat back exhaust! I don't have any videos, but if I take anything soon I will be sure to send it this way.
