Default When did this turn into The Car Lounge?

I reckon, some new sport springs and shocks would do it...

<a href="https://www.audiworld.com/tech/wheel49.shtml">Do this</a>

Dig 4 small holes in the ground, and park with your wheels in them.

Default Find a good shop that can guide you

If you dotn know the options, you really should consult with a good shop.

In general you can:

1. buy shorter springs
2. Buy a full kit that allows height adjustability via lower perch settings
3. Buy a kit of shorter springs and shocks

There are many, many more considerations hwoever.
