Wondering what suspension upgrades fellow A6ers like and what's best...bilstein shocks perhaps? My 2.7 is fast, fun and unfortunately handles like a caddillac - well, sort of! You get the picture - my stock suspension is too soft. Thanks!

btw, random question, I replaced my cv joint boots (front wheels) a couple months ago and I'm getting a noise from what I think is the wheel bearing there, kind of a rattle-knock that is completely dependent on wheel rotation...could that be from not adding enough grease in the joint and boot???

not sure about the cv joints.....

a set of hotchkis sways really helped the handling of mine. but, the price you pay is in ride comfort. body roll was almost completely eliminated . a really nice mod for the price (~$500). a few weeks later i did kw variant 2 coilovers. these are adjustable. mine are set right in the middle. handling was improved again. but, i must say, not nearly as much as when i put the sways on. also, i went from the stock 7.5" wide wheels to 8" wide. that helped the handling as well.
