Ok, who's got em, or any other springs, whether stock or aftermarket shocks...

Whats it look and ride like, and how does it compare to stock? Is the bounciness gone? I dunno about you guys, but this car is nice and firm, but wants to go to the moon on rebounding off bumps

I have H&R Sport springs on my 330ci, they feel pretty much like stock with a nice drop.

I'm thinking about putting H&R on my S4, since they worked so well with the 330ci.

I've got H&R sports on my B6... love it! Can't wait to upgrade my shocks, though...

I'm putting HR sport on this week on stock shocks. I'll let you know.

I do have a friend with Race on his A4 stock shocks and it feels nice.

we got the rears on in less than an hour. We plan to do the front on Tusday night.

I didnt use the lift, we did it on the ground and used a floor jack to lower the subframe. It was easy. I dont know how the fronts are going to be though.. probably a biatch.

Right away I feel a differnce. The car rides much better in my opinion. Less lean, and it looks better lower, the drop is perfect.
I'm in LA, anytime you want a ride let me know. I'll take pictures after I do the front.

About the accident, I was able to go to the gym for the first time in 7 weeks yesterday but it still hurst and is really sore today. I think I need another week. BUT the girl who his me insurance company admitted liability. The damage on my Ducati came to 10,000 so it's a total loss. Then there is the pain and suffereing part but I havent started on that yet. Otherwise I'm doing ok, just trying to get mobility back and get strong again. Thank you for asking.

Oh yeah, anyone have a recommendation for replacement shocks with these springs? The stockers wont last 6 months around here on lowering springs, so I wanna knock out the combo in one session.

I have H&R coilovers ... ride is great on high speed.. but not so good when you're in the city.

Anyone has aftermarket shocks?
