    I think the Ohlin's stance seems too low. The look seems to cheapen the car a bit, at least from that angle. Maybe it is just because now the stock wheels look too far in.
    Anyone around Boston with a non-DRC RS6 so we can compare?

    Looked great in person (and rode great too)...I think most people are used to seeing 19in wheels on lowered RS6s....

    I don't want to leave out StevieG who joined us as well.
    Ride quality is better than DRC. Currently on softest setting. Will get alignment this week
    and probably try it at the next setting. Height has settled as well. Will sync up all four wheels at 13.5".
    A couple of pics to show placement of reservoirs. I appreciate forum members sharing thier setups.

    I've got my KW's set of 13.25" front & 13.5" in the rear. The stock specs have the rear slightly higher than the front so I stuck with that and it isn't noticeable at only 1/4". Yea, I'd drive it for a good month or so before re-setting the ride height. Looks good and if I want ground clearance I don't drive the RS6. The car handles better (lower center of 'G') and everyone tells me it looks better. I don't think any sports sedan or sports car looks good with a gap showing between the top of the tires and the bottom of the wheel well opening, just an opinion.

    I can't help that I loathe the US-only amber corners on the C5... to me pulling that piece of yellow government oppression out of your headlight is correcting a terrible NHTSA flaw imposed on the design... it just looks so much better. The stance on melsas' car is perfect, time to lose the amber, especially on an Avus car.
