A4 modifications



Hi guys, 
	I have just bought my first Audi and am very impressed. It is a 1998 A4
2.8(30v) Quattro, pearlescent white. It's a beautiful car and i'm wondering
what I can do with it. I have a few general questions about what I can do.
Will 225/50-16 tires fit on the standard 16" wheels that came with
205/55/-16? I wanted the sport package with the car but it wasn't on the
one I chose which turned out to be the only 1998 in my area at the time.
The sport package lowers the car 20mm. Can I lower it 20mm myself using
Eibach lowering springs and achieve the same affect as the factory package
without screwing up the ride of the car,i.e. if I lower it afterwards will
I have any problems with ride, wheel rubbing, etc? i am also interested in
the ABT modifications that I have seen from pictures of German A4's. Is
there an ABT dealer in the U.S.? What about the TAP upgrades? I have seen
their 4 stage upgrade for the 1.8T, is there one for the 30v 2.8? I would
appreciate any help with these questions, I'm not sure who to ask.
