S3 , H&R SPRINGS

[gingers3]

do the h&r springs on the s3 make the ride any "harsher " than oem ? any down sides to them ? :icon_thumright:

 

[JustCharlie]

they honestly ride better than stock pal, much more controlled

Yeah a lot better then stock. We also have a GB running on them at the moment with a big discount.

Gaz,

I put the H&R's on mine last month and the ride feels more bouncy over the back roads? I take it your feels more firm????

Not sure if this will apply... mine not being an S3 but a A3 Sportback but I just got mine put on and I love them. The springs are firm and predictable and mated with the FSD's, which are pretty soft shocks, makes for a great ride.

Mine are not fully settled though I don't really expect them to go much lower than they are already. This was taken after about 5 days and 400km... Top one is H&R and bottom is stock A3.

Lovely pic that Gryphon. Can someone explain to me why the OEM rear is so much lower than the front?

 

[Gryphon001]

The fender in the back was for some reason designed to be lower to the ground than the front... personally I think it's just to **** people off.

If I was thinking of fitting some Eibach's 30mm springs to a BE S Line you only need to drop the front?
