Sportlines here.
Notice that everyone that says they don't have clearance issues is also running a taller tire than stock. If your tire height is stock-ish, then you might have some clearance problems.
Here's a 2013 with stock wheels and tires (25.8") on Sportlines.
Here's my car (26.5" front, 28.5" rear). The extra inch or so of ground clearance does make a difference.

I was about to make that point Danny. My car has about a 27.8" tall tire on it from the factory and is an A6 with 3.15's. Throwing the 20" wheel/tire combo like everyone else has plus some sportlines would look great, but make my gearing even worse.

a set of 3.73's would help that...

I love the way your car sets. I have 27.5 tire so I think it will be fine. I know it will be low but its not a daily driver anyway.

Anyone ever used the SR springs that are on American Muscle? 1.5 drop and lots of good reviews. Only $170

But they wouldn't do so well with the PA that's going on in the next month or so.

D, after your car settled how much drop front and rear? I've had BMR springs sitting at the house for a couple months now and will be throwing them on next time I'm in town.

another 1/8-3/16" at most. I think the passenger front being lower has something to do with the strut honestly...I'm saving up to get front struts if I can stop spending money on other things. Haha

275/35/19. They are a little shorter than I would like but they will work until I need new ones or new rims

I think they look great. I am leaning towards a 19 with a 275/40 tire. Your car looks good man.
