Has anyone run and got opinions on different lowering springs, iv got a facelift S3 and have been looking at H&R and eiback but my friend who's got a golf R says VWR springs.
I'm only looking for 20mm drop 25 at a max prefere 20 though.
Not wanting to change the ride firmness too much and more for asthetics then performance

Thanks
 
I've got Eibach sportlines, nice chunky (but sensible) drop, much improved handling and not too crashy or stiff. Can't comment on the others though.

Throw up some pictures with how much drop it is please
 
For the moderate drop you described, you'll want to get the Eibach Pro Kit. Eibach recently released new ones for the 8V S3 / A3 Cab E10-15-021-13-22

Another forum user has posted some pics (link below). I'll eventually go with these ones. I don't want a ridiculous slammed look.

I have these exact springs + Bilstein B8 shocks (basically the B12 kit). The ride is firm and comfortable. Handling is great! Super fun to drive!
