Melye uprated (Will this suit my S4 B5?) the reviews look great but advise 1st please.

Yes they will fit but you can get them cheaper on ebay about £340 iirc.

Thanks Bradderz, just wanted feedback on makes, I ain't done any price research yet just found the link. Would these be the best option or are there better ones to go for?
Cars all stripped and ready to go.

I got my Meyle kit from Jason at all german parts. Good stuff and good service.

I have now decided to change my mind and go with 034 motorsport ones. In total they cost £450 all in, been on there website and a few forums and they also have great reviews. I have bought many items from 034 and have never been disapointed with the produst and service level.

"it is IMPERATIVE that the suspension be compressed to static ride height before any suspension pivot bushings are tightened. If this is not done, bushings will tear as the twisting forces on them will be much higher than is intended."

Pleased I read the T's & C's

 

[Bradderz_1988]

Well it is really or else you'd of just blown £450 down the drain just make sure you measure from wing to wheel whilst on the ground and when your ready to tighten place the wheel on with one bolt then adjust with a transmission jack to the right height take it off and then tighten those puppys up jobs a good un !!!

Is that inc shipping ???

 

[adidasandy]

Leave off wheel and place axle stand under bottom arm for ride height or there abouts no?, yes thats all in next day delivery so arrives on Tuesday complete with bolt kit etc ; )

 

[Bradderz_1988]

Yeah thats correct wheel on or wheel off as long as its at the correct height.
