Hi All,
I just wanted to know if anyone swapped their s-line suspension (not sport) over to the Bilstein B12 Pro Kit? Is the ride softer and more forgiving now. Has the handling improved? After owning a 3.2 v6 s-line for a month I really need to change the suspension its awful, just sooo hard lol.
 
Hi Damien, thanks for the response. So by 'refined' you mean the ride on the B12 kit is not as firm as the S-Line? It is the only reason why I want rid of the s-line suspension, lowering it is a small added bonus.
 
B12 is one of the best kits you can fit onto the Audi Sline, its much more comfortable and not as 'crashy' as the S-line suspension. it will lower it a fair bit than the S-line... what size alloys will you be running with the B12s?
 
Thanks for the reply Ash. I will have the BBS Speedline Split rims 18s. From what I have read the sline suspension is already lowered 10mm. The B12 kit should lower the car a further 20-25mm I believe?

The ride with the B12 kit will still be firm but it won't be crash like the standard S-line suspension.

S-line is around 15mm lowered over factory so the B12 Pro kit will give you around a further 15mm.

Perfect! Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks Damian.
