No it should be fine. But you should eventually get shocks and not just go the cheap way.

the shocks will prematurely fail but how long will they last

I have heard they can last 80k plus but you should just upgrade the whole thing.

Hi. I just installed Eibach Pro springs on my '06 A4, 2.0T. I retained the stock shocks. I had the basic suspension. It dropped the car about 1.5 inches. Just right for me. there is still a small wheel well gap. The surprising thing was that the ride quality improved! It is smoother now. The body roll greatly reduced without being harsh. I have about 1000 miles on the car with the new springs, and I love the feel now. Good luck. BTW there are some great DIYs on replacing the springs. One thing that helped me hugely with the rears was a little silicone spray lube to help the springs slide in to place. Good luck. I am eager to hear your impressions of the swap...
