Just about to sign on the dotted line for A5 Sportback S Line with 19" x 8.5j 'multi-spoke' alloys.
Can anyone tell me what the ride height difference between the standard sport suspension and the optional (no cost option) comfort suspension?
I believe standard sport suspension lowers car by 20mm. Would switching to comfort suspension therefore increase the height by 20mm? Do not wish to have gaping gap between tyre wall and arch if I opt for the comfort suspension but do not wish to sacrifice ride.
Having read several review regarding comfort levels (see below) I've very reluctant to opt for the standard sport suspension particularly as I spend 5 hours plus in my car every day covering 30K miles each year.
Responses greatly received.
Cheers
As with the A5 Coupe, this Sportback version is deliberately firmer than the equivalent A4 saloon in order to give it a sportier feel. So far we’ve tested the car on 19-inch wheels and S-line suspension, which proved far too firm, and 17-inch wheels and lowered Sport suspension, which was better but still not perfect at ironing out bumps in the road.
