I've been trying to dig up some pics on what our A4s end up looking like with the S4 kit. If anyone can post pics or a link that would be sweet. I have some coming but still have the 16s on and I don't think it will help too much with the gap until I throw 17s on her .

 

the shocks will work,but the springs probably wont...cant tell you because i dont know what kind of a4 u have

the springs arent going to drop u much..esp if uhave a 1.8t

 

Sorry need to put that in my sig. I have the 2.8 quattro so they will work. Was just trying to get a good picture of how they look . Mainly the car just sits a little high (non-sport) and its a little floaty on the freeway, so I'm hoping these will help with both.

 

Uhh.. maybe i dont quite understand your question but wont it just look like a stock s4 or an a4 with the sport suspension???
I upgraded my non-sport to sport suspension with s4 shocks/springs and put s4 wheels on for the summer and i noticed a huge difference without being super super stiff, it didnt lower it 3-4 inches but it did leave about three fingers of gap and that was enough difference for me in my DD.

 

It will look like this:

 

Yeah, user ImtheDevil has a 2.8q like yours and he has s4 springs, idk about shocks, i think only springs, but he's got pics of it on his profile

 

I'll look his up thanks that's what I needed. . Course with 16s it will have more gap. Might be a reason for 17s hehe.

 

the shocks will work, springs will not drop you much if anything. just pay the $230, do the right thing and get H&R race or sport springs and use the S4 shocks if you can get them cheap...

 

There wont be a larger gap from fender to tire with 16"s. The overall tire diameter is still the same as 17"s. It will just look different becuase the rims are smaller.

This is my 01 with 16" OEM sport rims dropped with Eibach Pro springs. Crappy pic, but you get the idea. An S4 suspension sits the same as an A4 sport suspension, this is how it looks lowered with 16"s.

 

Thanks guys. I think I will be happy though with anything since I have the non-sport. . Guess I'll find out this weekend.
