Hi guys, new to the group. Expecting delivery of my S3 saloon in the next couple of weeks.
Just wondering if anyone can put up some pics of their cars on H&R springs. I have found ones that drop 15mm and others that drop 20mm. Just looking to compare and are they fine with the standard shocks?

Cheers

Not an S3, but gives you an idea. These are H&R supersport (the lower version of the two)

They're19" RS6 replicas.
Car rides really well with these springs. Not overly crashy

I thought so! Tempted for a set for my 3 door S3 but half of me wants OZ's or split rims

Any rubbing with the 19s? I believe the sedan has wider arches but ill be running the same springs if i can get my finger out and put them in it

Nope, never rubs. Think you're right. The arches are larger on the saloon.

I'm selling the springs for £50 if you're interested. Cars going back so time to put it back to factory.

Well after reading a lot about different suspension set ups and speaking to a mate who is a mechanic. I'm now consider going for Bilstein B14's. I've bought a brand new S3 so just feels like I'm skimping on the suspension by going for just springs. Doesn't an S3 deserve the full kit? That's my thoughts anyway lol

Hey, do you remember the partnumber of your springs? I bought a set for my A3 and the rear did not dropped like yours.
