Advice req please gents.
Looking at lowering the wifes A3 sportback Sline.
I understand the Sline sits 20mm lower than std.
Are the figures quoted on lowering springs from std height, ie 30mm lowering would lower her car by 10mm?
Thanks in advance.

most spring manufacturers use figures relevant to standard height. H&R springs are meant to be a good job

Ive got S3 H&R -25 mm springs on my sportback and it's certainly sitting low.

Yeah unless stated spring drops will be quoting from standard height. As mentioned the H&R springs are a good choice and the 50mm springs will give you around a 30-35mm drop on your S-Line.
