I had 10mm front and back on my car with stock tires and suspension for about 6 months. No rubbing.

Default 2nd. 10mm spacers are perfect. Go MTM...perfectly cut.....
they even have the proper bevel to accomodate the stock Audi wheels. Ryan@ICS (post above) can set you up.

Default DO NOT put H&R springs on this car.....
The suspension system is very finely calibrated. If you want to do a suspension mod, there are really only 2 options to do it right.

Stasis Motorsport or KW Variant 3

Springs alone will kill the ride/handling balance and make your shocks prone to premature failure. If you haven't heard, the RS4's shocks are already prone to failure to begin with. This is a high end car. Either do high-end mods or don't do them at all. If you do, you will F*** it up.
