Which lowering springs for non mag ride S3?

[FabianS]

Really considering lowering my 2015 S3 a bit...around 0.5- 1 inch max due to it being a winter driven daily driver. My car is a non mag ride, and I like the way it rides now, but a bit stiffer is okay, just don't want it jarring. I've read that some of the springs make the car really bouncy, and I'd like to stay away from that. What can people recommend for me? Am looking at the H&R Sports right now...

Thanks.

Nobody?

I was thinking of going with the H&R sports, but they only drop like 0.5, that maybe good for you and they really shouldn't be all that bouncy due to the slight drop, the OEM damper should be fine.

I have also contemplated the Super Sport and Blistein HD shocks rear and struts front. However I am going to go with the NGP Coil over kit. Excellent price essentially a KW-1 set, but valved for US rough roads. Mike is great I would call them or drop him a line and tell him Dave fro Akuma sent you to him. They are running really good buys right now.

Blistein will run you about $750 for the complete shock strut set (B8 - rear $105 Ea., Front Strut $267 Ea.) and then you need springs for another $250 or so.

We are running on Neuspeed Sport Springs and like them a lot

I think the Neuspeed ones might just be a bit to low for me. It's a daily driver, and we get a fair amount of snow up here. Looks awesome though! What is the ride like compared to stock non mag?

Would be nice, but I already have a bunch sunk into my 911, and wife would have an aneurism if I started doing the same to my Audi.

If the Neuspeed springs are too low then your best option would likely be the H&R sport springs. From what I've read it goes H&R super sports, Neuspeed, H&R sport springs in order of most drop to least drop. Also, do a bit of digging on the site as there are a few very good threads on the lower springs that should be able to tell you everything you want to know.
