They're basically KW's budget range, good quality kit for the money.

I've heard good things about them.

If I was going to go for coilovers they'd probably the lowest ranged/cheapest I'd consider.

Quite (but not too) firm, but still very good, according to AMD Essex.
Durable too.

Hi mate thanks sounds like a good set up better than standard dampers(bouncy) with h&r springs...

I'm running Eibach sportlines with standard Sport dampers and the ride is fine so far. Not at all bouncy. I would've thought the S3 dampers would handle a drop even better.

Although you might still be better off going for the coilovers as one (or both) of the two main spring kits (h&r or eibach) only includes the front two springs for the S3, so it doesn't lower the rear at all.

I've got AP's on my TDi, much better ride than when I had VMaxx coils on..

The rides good, as mentioned firm but not too firm so good for everyday road use.

Give me a shout if you need any prices.

APs as said are made by KW, so they are a decent kit for the money!

i thought the h&r's were front and rear?

Yeah, Eibach is front only, but H&R is front and rear.
