Need advice.
I want to lower my A4 B8 but don't want to spend a fortune doing it. I won't ever take the vehicle on a track and i don't drive fast. All i want to do is stiffen up the ride slightly and reduce the gap between the wheel and wheel arch. Im torn between springs or coil overs. Im new to the Audi scene so any advice you can give me would be a great help.

What are your shocks like? I personally wouldn't add lower springs to used OEM shocks (depending on your mileage)

ahaha i missed @Chop. whilst I been non foruming at work :p

Suuuurely, if you get decent shocks that match the drop (Bilstein B8's shocks for a drop of 30-40mm) to match the 35mm drop on the H&R Sport springs, should get a nice all rounder :) by that point you are 700 in as good shocks arent cheap, but atleast you wouldnt spend months after regretting making your car feel like crap, and still cheaper than the equivelent coilovers :)
