That's what I'm thinking... Not that it's a bad thing at all, but it's just exactly what most of us have been advocating all along while you've been proposing your preposterous "The Fast & The Furious"-style mods all over this subforum. This isn't my cup of tea mainly because the upkeep this requires far outweighs the visual benefits in my opinion, but it looks good nonetheless.

When altering a vehicle as visually stunning as the A7, subtly is the key.

well I suppose I deserve getting my ASSBUSTED!!

However this does not look anything like stock... maby a stock S7..

But the lowering and polishing radically change the vehicle...

And as any of you know that have modded... pictures do not do justice.

And yes I agree about subtle adjustments...

nevertheless... what I was harping on was.. do some adjustments dont just slave over the stock vehicle (although its great)... the mods make it really sing and will put an even bigger smile on your face..

Also how is maintaing rims a challenge? Do you not wash your car once a week?

How dare you getting stock S7 rims? Looks good by the way.


I will be lowering mine this Thursday with H&R as well.

Your going to LOVE the H&R setup... i couldn't be happier with the drop.

even with OEM 20s car is much more agressive!

keep in mind these are Full Polish... they POP significantly more than the S7 stock... trust me. with the drop.. bam.. on fire.

If any of you are in LA and want a peek in person just let me know.

Ha! Was just near there 2 weeks ago. I love L.A. My home town, though havent lived there since '75.
Wife and I come out 2-3 times a yeas (from Washingon DC), always rent a Vette. Next time I,ll be on the lookout for your silver bullet in the Venice Whole Foods lot.

IN Europe... the "stock" wheel is a 19" version of the 5 spoke like yours

Funny thing is for North America S7 the optional "stock" 20" wheels are now 7-spoke, with no option on pre-order to change style

"20" x 9J '7-twin-spoke' high-gloss design alloy wheels with 265/35 R20 tyres"

Most of us Canadians will strip the rubber and keep them for Winters, with something more "unique" for summer.

We also get a different front and rear treatment, so maybe the static about your car looking "stock" is justified after all. Where's the racing stripes?

Kyn Prime

no the euro stock 19 inch is not like this wheel... it is a different design... significantly.

this wheel is only available on the S7 as a 20 inch option.

racing strip... just wait ; )

Kyn Prime

let me know the next time you are out! always time for those with good taste in automotive cusine... : )

Does anybody have pics or video of the installation process for the H&R module. I have one coming, and have looked at the rear right side panel, looks like you have to remove the chrome cargo hooks to get started on removal.

I guess I'll be able to figure it out, been working on cars most of my life, but looking for any gotchas on hidden panel fasteners.

This drop looks so good! Anyone have any issues with clearance on speed bumps of steep driveway entrances?
