Eibach Spring compare to Vogtland

[da_vi_man]

Hey
I have the OEM S line suspension.. thinking about installing the spring to lower the car. i am wondering about how much each of the spring lower the car, and what are pro and con of each spring...
please help guys

I just bought a Black on Black B7 Avant S-Line and was wondering the same thing. I currently have a B7 Sedan with 2 wheel drive and have Eibach Sport springs with 19" wheels. The ride is better than I originally thought it would be but now with the S-Line, and the fact that it already has a sports suspension, will the ride be the same if I lower the car using only springs. Any help would be much appreciated. Will post photos after I pick up the car on Wednesday....

stock S-line shock is not for aftermarket spring, so the better opition is go shock + spring combo !! cheers...=P

What brand of shock and spring is that...
pretty cheap too

[Tristen]

Not sure, but the cost is just a couple hundred more that just springs. If this application is better, this may be the way to go for us S-line owners..... Is it much more to install the struts? Any info from anyone who knows would be great!

I have Eibach springs with SLine shocks and have no issues whatsoever. Car handles beautifully.

That's B&G Sport stuff. Decent company overall.

Everyone says shocks will never last on aftermarket springs, but I've done this on 4 different cars for 50k+ miles each without issue.
My is300 at 95k installed eibachs on stock shocks (125k total) is finally in need of replacing, but nobody keeps an Audi for that extent of time so you should be fine for the 30k miles or so that you will own the car.

ibiski,
You just ues spring with stock sport shocks, and no problems at all ? Over 25k ?

i wonder the same thing as i have the sport suspension also, what will give a better drop with 19s without rubbing?

I have the h&r spring w. the s-line suspension for over 20k miles now and the ride is great. I drive a lot and I need a good riding car and this set up is just perfect for me. Plus the spirng give it a great drop imo.
