Default Drop 1" from factory sport or non-sport? (more)...

Rubbing will depend on wheel width and offset, as well as tire width. My A4 is lowered 38mm front & 31mm rear from stock non-sport. I have 17X7.5 ET35 w/ 225/45 tires. No rubbing.<p><a href="http://www.users.uswest.net/~craiger/a4main.htm">
