    Red face Weird Suspension Question

    I have the b8 a4 quattro 2.0 and was wondering if I could use the S5 suspension on my vehicle? I found a really good deal on someones leftovers and really want it to work...

    It will technically fit, but likely won't be much lower (if at all) and may not ride ideally. I say put the money toward a proper aftermarket suspension. Do it nice or do it twice!

    ok well it was the completely suspension setup for 80$ vice coilovers for 1500 so it was worth a try..

    It's not worth the time in labor or cost of labor depending on which route you take on the installation if we're talking about stock s5 suspension. You're better off spending 250 on springs if you're looking for a inexpensive route.

    If you can DIY install, go for it. Otherwise it will be an expensive experiment. S5 suspension isn't even what I'd consider an upgrade though.
