    Solowerks Coilovers for B8/8.5 Chassis, in Very Good Condition

    ***SOLD*** ***SOLD*** ***SOLD***

    I have a set of Solowerks coilovers for the AWD B8/B8.5 chassis (this includes the A4/S4/A5/S5/allroad). These will also work on a 2WD, but the rear spring rate is slightly stiffer. These coilovers are less than 6 months old and have no more than 5K miles. Even though they have gone through one Seattle winter, everything functions as it should. I have cleaned up the coils and placed a coating of anti-seize/anti-rust on the adjustment sleeves so they adjust up/down freely. You should have no issues what’s so ever.

    There are tons of reviews on the Solos. My impression is that the manufacture accomplished their goal of creating an extremely good daily driving coilover for the money. They are very comfortable and ride slightly stiffer than stock. These were replaced with a set of coils better suited for the track, at the expense of a harsher ride.

    Asking $325 for local buyers or $365 shipped anywhere in the Continental US. For extra funds, I can install these for local buyers.

    Interested but confused...So the set works on both B8 sedans and avants despite the heavier rear of an avant? I know Solo Werks made a stiffer spring on newer sets of coilovers for avants to reduce sagging. Wouldn't that spring be too stiff for a sedan? Does your set include the stiffer rear springs?

    EDIT: I've got an avant.

    You are correct, the newer series of springs are stiffer for the avant than the sedans to reduce the sag. The avants at most, are slightly heavier than the sedans due to the rear hatch but we're not talking about several hundred lbs here. Also keep in mind, the Solos are a progressive rated springs as opposed to a linear rated one. Because of the progressive nature of the spring, that difference in stiffness isn't going to make a tremendous difference.
