SO, I was looking at the lower control arms on the s4, both front and rear have 2 more holes further
out, and look like they are not drilled or tapped.
Im starting to think the further out holes for the control arms are for the rs4. and then longer upper control arms are used... OR adjustable control arms.
this would make sense and would also do away with wheel spacers.....
anyone have any knowledge to confirm this?

I would think the lowers are the same just diff mounting points, but the uppers are def longer .....
otherwise you would have crazy camber.
ill have to take a look at the rear suspension as well.

dunno, i remember from bauer's photos that the wheels were pushed forward
towards the front bumper quite a bit.
considering that:
oem rs4 wheels have a low offset (20 or 22) on a 8.5" wheel
rs4 axles = s4 axles
i would think the suspension geometry is pretty similar.
