Hi guys, got myself a S4 avant was wondering what your recommendations are for lowering springs.
Previous A4 on adjustable coilovers and springs and slammed.
Don't want to spoil ride and scrape so thinking of what is a decent drop aesthetically/ handling
It's suspension is stock at the mo.
Cheers

forget just shorter springs , best plan is better damper and lower springs.
Just from my personal experience , I went with Bilstein B8's allround with H&R 45mm drop , cant fault it .......
nice dropped level ride height with 1st class ride quality and handling, also sensible price aswell.

I've heard good reviews about the b12 on other motors. so Def improved handling over OEM ? Much ride compromise ( really for the missus as was the heated seats.)
 
B12's are a bit more sport based than B8's and it depends on what type of handling & ride quality want really .

well that's a bonus then , but that does make sense as I only bought the dampers , but it was being sold as a B8 kit in Germany, so b12 is a specific kit with another 3rd party spring then such as the eibachs then.

Do the b8 shock kits work with b5 perches ?
