Lowering our GT's

I recently swapped out wheels for 22's and added the lowering links, car looks absolutely amazing! I did notice my steering wheel is slightly off-center, I spoke with an alignment tech at Audi and they advised me that the vehicle would have to be aligned and re-calibrated due to the drop/ Have you or anyone heard of this?
Hi,
When I lowered my Audi Gt on 22's, I took mine to the Audi Dealership to have it recalibrated and have a 4 wheel alignment. This was under $300.00 for the alignment. They also gave me a loaner car and didnt give me any hassle either.
I lowered mine on Vossens and this is with the CETE lowering Module.

No, the values are set while your car is in comfort mode, and the 4 values I listed are for each wheel.
Hi,
I dont think this is the same with my CETE lowering module. I set the car to -37mm in comfort and dynamic. Any lower and the car will start putting lights up on the dash. The car no longer makes adaptations during speed levels except when I set the speed on my app that tells it to return to stock settings at a certain speed.

Wow that looks so good @Long! What are the specs on your wheel and tire setup?

Is this what you're using on your car?

Hi,
Tag Motorsprts did put the correct link.
They did a very nice Audi Gt. The rims on the model they used were more expensive.

I took my car to Supreme Power in Fullerton (they have a very nice clean shop). Eric and Kim helped me there.
They installed my rims and tires, my CETE module, and they had my brakes painted red ( best job I have seen, with decals and clear coat of course).
Tire set up from Vossen is standard on their website.
285/30ZR22. FRONT MICHELIN PILOT SPORT 4S
335/25ZR22 REAR MICHELIN PILOT SPORT 4S
About 10k for the work.
I took my car to Audi dealership after for the 4 wheel alignment and sensors needed reclaibration.

Btw I feel like I lost some range due to the larger wheels. Its about 20 miles less on 80% charge. Such is life to look cool I guess.
 
Thanks for the comment. I have had a lot of experience driving lowered cars. I drive low and slow. Its a trade off. In areas where the streets are bad I drive in the highest setting. In places I've never been I take my time and cruise. In fact I think it should be lower...(the module allows this, but the car will throw up errors and well as be very bumpy), so its a compromise. As far as speed bumps I try and avoid them. If I need to go over one. The Cete module I have can raise the car over stock height even. I typically can get out in or in most driveways as long as there is room to go diagonally without adjusting the height. My friend this is how most sports cars are! My R8 was lowered and it was the same way.
