    A Question about Suspension, FWD Style...

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Ok so i see everyone has options if they have quattro...Unluckily for me...I have a FWD.
    So anyway now i am looking for springs and struts, But i have a 1996 a4 2.8l v6...and my rear struts look different,like there is a cup and the springs sit in that. So i guess what are my options since i have a FWD a4...and I believe my 96 has different rear struts,anyone with the same setup have a combo they prefer?
    so far on ebay i've seen this:
    blistein struts

    I have H+R sports with bilstein shocks on my FWD, its pretty nice, but I'm gonna add a rear sway bar to get it to the cornering level my old VW was at

    check out TEIN basic coilovers, they are like 600 bucks for FWD and you could slam the shit out of your car.

    I think you did, by the time you got there I was already 1/2 way out the door so you didn't even see my car, I'll be at the GTG at the rt 17 chilis this month if you want to see the stance/ feel the ride of the suspension

    I have H&R coilovers on my FWD with no complaints. Very smooth ride for a daily driver, and I'm about 24.5" fender to ground.
