Picture was taken yesterday. I think I put the suspension on in early May. Been about 2k miles or so.Damn thanx for the pic. Mine will be similar to yours. 15\20 spacers. Was that picture taken after the springs had settled all the way?

FCP is great. I believe I ordered this kit when I did mine, from UrotuningFRONT. https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/audi-vw-strut-mount-kit-sachs-kit-802696kt1
REAR https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/vw-shock-mount-kit-sachs-kit-803010kt1
comes with everything you need, especially lifetime warranty.
When I did my springs I only installed the front mount and not the rears since I was at 20k miles at the time. Still running good. If you got a high mileage or just want to replace both for peace of mind go for it.
What you need....
DG springs, TT-pads for rear (if you have manual), and the links above. That's about it from what I remember.
def looks lower (better) than other DG pics, plus you are also running a taller tire that stock so while that adds to ground clearance it also shrinks the fender gap by about 1/4" to create that lower illusion look.I feel like my DG springs are way lower than everyone else’s. So I bought the springs used from someone who had leased their car. Gonna guess somewhere around 30k miles on them. I put them on my car at 3000 miles and I’m at 15,000 miles now. Maybe I’m imagining things but it feels more bouncy. Im running the stock DCC shocks. My current wheel and tire setup is OZ Leggera HLT 19x8 +45 w/ 10mm spacers all around and 235/35r19 Michelin PSS.

So you bought this kit + B8's + Driver Gear Springs + TT Pads... Is that it?FCP is great. I believe I ordered this kit when I did mine, from Urotuning

How do you like the ride of 235/40/18 tires on you stock rims? I'm considering doing the same to pair with DG springsit's a very mild drop ~0.5", my gap went from 2.5" to 1.5" but I went from 18 Hankook 225/35 to MPS4S 235/40.

Yes. Email the website you plan on ordering the B8s from prior to placing the order. A lot of times they are listed as in stock, but are actually back ordered. I canceled my first order because of that and went with a place that confirmed that they had them physically in stock.So you bought this kit + B8's + Driver Gear Springs + TT Pads... Is that it?
Newbie question. With your current wheel/spacer set up… are your wheels more tucked in or more spread out than stock set up (18”X7.5” et 51) with 15/20mm spacers?The tire rubs a little bit on big dips at highway speeds but that isn't very frequent. I would have done the TT pads again as from what I can see on my car the rear sits only slightly higher over the front. I'm very happy with this setup as I wanted a something that was roughly 60-70% sporty and 40-30% comfort and I think this setup achieves that.
