I do not run any spacer and my avant looks totally level. even have  
had many people (audi and others) say how level and long the lines of  
the car look. i also carry heavy loads all the time and it sags then-  
but only w/ a load of *completely* full house furniture, or say ~ 8  
bags of rocks and couple bags of mulch.

totally agree here- makes me a bit frustrated that the nose is so  
long... even on the slightest of driveways i have to crawl up.  
otherwise, i love having them!
