I've just ordered mine but not fitted as yet, that said there's plenty around who have and the drop is perfect, matches the rear 100%
For example:
Not a fan of that raked look... I understand why people do it tho, with the front arch being higher, but well prefer the flat look...

For example:
Is this with the Eibach springs , as that looks perfect to me , ordered some 30mm drop eibach's last night for mine
Real nice Alex! The local guys who fit springs coils etc said the same thing you just said about bottoming out. One pot hole or bump could really cost ya, so he recommended KW v3s. *** costly so might just keep as is for a while. Also mentioned eibachs just on front won't be good for handling. Was so close to ordering em to.
Alex are yours coilovers? Club sport different from the Variant series?
Hey guys
Anyone using ST springs or H&R springs to dump their S3?
Considering 25mm all around by H&R...or....ST 30mm front and 20mm rear.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks
Yeah mate 25-30mm. Not sure I never actually measured lol. But think its 25. I am happy with the look but not the handling, as I am still running on the standard dampers, which generally isnt advised. I plan to buy coilovers this week (KW V3's possibly) so I will have these springs up for sale if you are interested.S3 trev thx for sharing the pic and info. You drop 25mm all around? I'm with you on the OCD bout not doing rears and only fronts, although I can see where Murray is coming from as the rear is fairly low stock. Are you happy with the handling and look?
Personally I prefer the stance from the ST by KW springs.

Hey buddy Im running H&R springs all round and I can confirm it gives a totally equal drop. I wouldn't be a fan of installing just front springs, that's just weird in my own personal opinion and would wreak havoc with my OCD lol.
Here is a side on phone pic of my s3. Sorry for the bad quality.
Hope this helps mate.

Will be ordering from yourself this week hopefully Damian. Just deciding between the KW V3's an the Billy B16s.
Hoesty, I have just bought the KW V3's from DPM performance. I will inform you of what I think of them once installed and set up

Thanks guys looking forward to getting them.
Don't forget that by just lowering the front, you're altering the balance of the car affecting understeer, turn-in, dive etc.
I've recently fitted Eibach Pro-Kit front uprated springs, no complaints here as it's greatly reduced understeer, sharpened up turn-in and given a more positive feel even for aspects like braking.
